THE FOX ON THE FAIRWAY by Ken Ludwig

Directed Tony Ferri

A tribute to the great English farces of the 1930s and 40s, The Fox on the Fairway takes you on a hilarious romp which pulls the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club.  Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors, and over the top romantic shenanigans, it is a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers' classics.  A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life, and man's eternal love affair with - GOLF!
