Playhouse on the Square to Present ONE MAN, TWO GUVNORS, 9/26-10/12
In this fresh, English version of the classic farce, Servant of Two Masters, Francis Hernshall has just been fired from his folk jazz skiffle band. Desperate for work, he becomes minder to Roscoe Crabbe. But Roscoe is really Rachel, posing as her own dead brother -- who's been killed by her boyfriend Stanley Stubbers. Francis spots the chance for an extra meal ticket and takes a job with Stubbers -- but to prevent discovery he must keep his two "guvnors" apart. Simple. This unique laugh-out-loud mix of satire, songs, and slapstick is an award-winning celebration of British Comedy.
One Man, Two Guvnors is directed by Stephen Hancock (Clybourne Park),and features Playhouse on the Square Associate Company Members Cameron Reeves (Mary Poppins) and Marek Zurowski (Mary Poppins), with Playhouse on the Square Resident Company Member Michael Gravois (God of Carnage), and Ellen Saba making her Playhouse on the Square debut.
