From the antics of silent film stars such as Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, to the more modern chicanery of the Marx Brothers or the physical comedy of the Three Stooges, people love to laugh out loud at the goings on of individuals trying to get away with something, even when they know they are doomed to get caught. Such is the tale told in Ray Cooney's RUN FOR YOUR LIFE, brilliantly directed at a breakneck pace by Gary Robbins at the Torrance Theatre Company through October 12.
The Windsor Jesters Spring offering of their 63rd continuous season is Ray Cooney's hilarious British farce, 'Run For Your Wife'. Directed by Rosemarie Beskind of Simsbury, 'Run For Your Wife', tells the story of very ordinary taxi driver John Smith, played by Chris Bushey of Bloomfield, who just so happens to have two wives, two homes and two lives. John has successfully kept each wife, Helen Malinka of Glastonbury as Mary Smith and Tracy Arcari Weed of West Hartford as Barbara Smith, from finding out about the other one until he decides to help out an old woman who is getting mugged. The play proves the old adage that no good deed goes unpunished, as Mr. Smith is soon being investigated by two police detectives, Mark O'Donnell of Windsor as Det. Sgt. Troughton and Steve O'Brien of Simsbury as Det. Sgt. Porterhouse. Even though John is eagerly assisted by his upstairs neighbor Stanley Gardner, Bruce Larsen of Glastonbury, it looks like John's secret is going to come out.
As jy dink jou lewe is ingewikkeld, plaas jouself vir 'n oomblik in John Smith se skoene, daardie taxi-bestuurder van My Vrou se Man se Vroumet twee vrouens, en nou ook twee gesinne! Dis reg, in My Boetie se Sussie se Ou is dit agtien jaar later en hou John steeds twee families in verskillende dele van Londen aan, beide dolgelukkig en salig onbewus van mekaar. Maar wanneer sy twee tieners, 'n dogter van die een gesin en 'n seun van die ander, mekaar op 'n internetkletskamer raak gesels en angstig besluit om mekaar in die persoon te ontmoet, versnel John se reeds gejaagde lewe tot in die hoogste rat, en moet hy spook om hulle uitmekaar te hou.
The Windsor Jesters are getting ready for the opening night of "Run For Your Wife", Ray Cooney's hilarious British farce, on Friday May 16! "We are thrilled to be performing on Shad Derby weekend and Memorial Day weekend", says Chris Bushey, the group's President. "These are two very important events for the Town and we couldn't be happier to be a part of it all. Windsor is Connecticut's oldest town and the Windsor Jesters are Connecticut's oldest continuously performing community theater. It's great to be a part of such a rich history", he concluded.
