Director Barbara Christensen says, "Neil Simon is the master of farce and fantastic comedy. We are proud to have so many talented local actors making their LCP debut with this light, frothy, and hilarious comedic masterpiece. Rumors has nothing on its mind except making the audience laugh, and laugh often! This will be a side-splitting night at the theatre full of great humor and good fun!"

At a large, tastefully appointed townhouse, the Deputy Mayor of New York has just shot himself. Though only a flesh wound, four couples are about to experience a severe attack of farce. Gathering for their tenth wedding anniversary, the host lies bleeding in the other room and his wife is nowhere in sight. His lawyer, Ken and wife Chris must get "the story" straight before the other guests arrive. As the confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity!
