Published: 07/10/2014

“Dirty Rotten Scoundrels,” written by David Yazbek, centers on two competing con men living on the French Riviera. At first, the suave and experienced Lawrence Jameson takes the less sophisticated rookie, Freddy, under his wing. Freddy tries to compete directly with Lawrence. The competition comes to a peak when they agree that the first man to extract $50,000 from the female heiress, Christine Colgate, wins and the other must leave town. A hilarious battle of cons ensues that will keep audiences laughing, humming and guessing until the end.

Directed by Lynne Snyder, the musical will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday-Thursday, July 22-24; 8 p.m. Friday-Saturday, July 25-26; and 2 p.m. Sunday, July 27.
