Follow the misadventures of 1950s British actors Jack and Leo, who are performing Shakespeare on the Moose Lodge circuit in the Pennsylvania Amish country. They hear that an old woman is near death and plans to leave her fortune to her two long-lost English nephews: perfect roles for Jack and Leo! However, it turns out the relatives are actually nieces. Hilarity and romance ensue in Ken Ludwig’s madcap comedy.
Performances run Fridays to Sunday, January 17 to February 2.
