The Peterborough Players to Stage Funny Farce THE LADIES MAN

In Belle Époque Paris, the recently married Dr. Hercule Molineaux tells "one, tiny, little, hardly noticeable lie" to cover an innocent but embarrassing indiscretion. From that single untruth tumbles a cascade of increasingly convoluted deceptions, misunderstandings and mistaken identities. Compounding Molineaux's troubles are a suspicious wife, a gorgon of a mother-in-law, an outrageously aggressive female patient, her violently jealous Prussian husband, a well-intentioned friend with a serious lisp, a valet with attitude and a maid with a secret, all adding up to a hilariously zany and infectiously charming farce.

The Ladies Man features David Breitbarth, Tom Frey, Karron Graves, Kate Hampton, Dale Hodges, Anderson Matthews, Susan Riley Stevens and Kraig Swartz. Written and directed by former Peterborough Players' Artistic Director, Charles Morey, adapted from Tailleur pour Dames by Georges Feydeau.

Performances are August 17 - 28, Tuesdays-Fridays at 7:30pm, Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 4pm. Tickets are available by calling the box office at 603-924-7585 or online at www.peterboroughplayers.org.

The Peterborough Players theatre is air-conditioned, handicapped accessible, is equipped with a hearing assistance system and is located at 55 Hadley Rd, Peterborough, NH 03458.
