ABOUT ABOUT

Join us for a hilarious evening of chaos, comedy, and confusion as Neil Simon's classic farce, "Rumors," takes the stage!

In this uproarious comedy of errors, we invite you to witness the madcap misadventures of four affluent couples who gather at the posh New York home of their Deputy Mayor, Charlie Brock, and his wife Myra, to celebrate their anniversary. However, when the guests arrive, they discover that Charlie has accidentally shot himself in the earlobe, Myra is missing, and the household staff is conspicuously absent.

As the evening unfolds, the guests concoct a web of elaborate lies to protect the host couple's reputation, weaving a tangled web of deception that spirals out of control. Misunderstandings, mistaken identities, and hilarious misunderstandings pile up as the characters try to maintain the façade of normalcy. It's a whirlwind of witty one-liners, absurd situations, and zany antics that will have you laughing out loud from start to finish.

With each passing moment, the guests become increasingly frenzied, and the secrets they hide threaten to unravel the evening completely. "Rumors" is a fast-paced, side-splitting comedy that explores the lengths people will go to in order to maintain appearances, and how a simple misunderstanding can lead to uproarious consequences.

Directed by Paul Reams, this production of "Rumors" promises an unforgettable night of laughter and mayhem. Come and enjoy an evening of riotous entertainment as you witness the unraveling of this farcical tale where the only thing more outrageous than the rumors themselves is the truth!
