Moon Over Buffalo
by Ken Ludwig
directed by Robin Green
Monday 12 - Saturday 24 March 2007
Wharfeside Theatre
Ken Ludwig, author of “Lend Me a Tenor”, gives us another happy, witty, rollicking farce. Moon over Buffalo is the story of an acting couple on tour in in 1953 in Buffalo, USA, with a repertory consisting of Cyrano de Bergerac (revised one-nostril version) and Noël Coward’s Private Lives.
Being a farce, you have all the craziness that includes five doors opening and closing, people hiding in closets, half-dressed actors, Errol Flynn sword duels, near misses in running into people who are hiding, mistaken identities and mass confusion.“Hilarious … building up its laughs methodically … Ludwig stuffs his play with comic invention, running gags … and a neat sense of absurdity … Go and enjoy.” - New York Post.
