About This Event
Beyond August Productions presents Lucky Stiff
by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty
Directed by Robyn Conner
Music Direction by Megan Pritchett
From the Tony Award–winning creators of Ragtime and Suessical, this zany musical-romantic-comedy opens on mild-mannered Londoner, Harry Witherspoon, as he learns he’s inherited six million dollars from an estranged uncle. But there’s a catch: he must escort his late uncle’s embalmed body to Monte Carlo, pass him off as alive, and follow the will's every bizarre instruction to the letter. If he fails, the money goes to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn -- or to his uncle’s loose-cannon ex! As Harry scrambles to follow the outlandish itinerary, he’s pulled into a whirlwind of eccentric strangers, suspicious schemes and unexpected love. Grab your passport and buckle up- Lucky Stiff is a wild, heartwarming farce that will leave you in stitches.
The show runs 2 hours, split into two approximately 60-minute acts. There will be a 15 minute intermission.
Drinks and snacks are available in the theater lobby and can be brought inside the theatre.
Please be advised:
Prop guns are used in the show.
