Phoenix Theatre Presents BEST LAID PLANS, 4/4-27

By:

Phoenix Theatre presents Best Laid Plans by Fred Carmichael and directed by Austin Gregory. Best Laid PLans will open April 4 and run until April 27. For tickets, you can call 206-533-2000 or purchase them through brownpapertickets.com.

While on her vacation Ada Westbrook, an elderly Ian Fleming type author, is called upon to act as liaison between our govenment and enemy powers. A spy shows up with the secret plans and suddenly dies in her house. Various govenment agents try to steal the body (with the plans) and it is moved around until no one know knows where it is. There are even more complications when the spy's twin brother shows up. Who is Mr. Big behind it all? No one is who they appear to be in this fast paced farce.

"Packed with laughs and rapid fire lines... a brilliance of farce and barbed wit." -Manchester Journal

The cast includes: Carissa Smit, Renee Gilbert, Jordon Fermstad, Woody Lotts, Doug Knoop, Deanna Smit, Michael McFadden, Austin Gregory, Melanie Calderwood, Asa Sholdez

Phoenix Theatre is located at 9673 Firdale Ave., Edmonds, Wa 98020.
