Don't miss the fun! LONDON. 1610. It's plague time again. When a wealthy gentleman flees to the country, his trusted servant opens his house to a pair of con artists and sets up a den of criminal capitalism. Claiming alchemical powers, the quick-witted trio fleece an onslaught of greedy sheep with their virtuosic ability to improvise amidst increasingly frantic comings and goings. It's comic gold with dupes, double-dupes, duels, disguises, and a lucky flea named "Lewis". This new version of Ben Jonson's rowdy comedy classic is adapted by Jeffrey Hatcher and directed by Jesse Berger - the pair that created the 2017 production of the hit comedy The Government Inspector. Tony Award-nominated actors Manoel Felciano (Broadway's To Kill a Mockingbird, Sweeney Todd) and Reg Rogers (Broadway's Tootsie, The Royal Family) team up with Jennifer Sánchez (Broadway's Pretty Woman, On Your Feet) as the play's trio of tricksters. Nathan Christopher (Off-Broadway debut); Stephen DeRosa (Broadway's Gary, Into the Woods); Carson Elrod (Broadway's Peter and The Starcatcher, Noises Off); Teresa Avia Lim (Broadway's Junk at Lincoln Center Theater); Jacob Ming-Trent (Falstaff in Shakespeare in the Park's Merry Wives); Louis Mustillo ("Mike & Molly"); and Allen Tedder (Broadway's To Kill a Mockingbird) complete the cast. *Red Bull Theater (https://www.redbulltheater.com/) hopes to share our work with as many people as possible without regard to individual means.
