About the Playwright: Marc CamolettiMarch 30, 2012Marc Camoletti wrote 40 plays, which have been translated into 18 languages and produced professionally in 55 countries. His most successful play, Boeing-Boeing, ran for 19 years in Paris. There have been 14 film and television adaptations of his plays, including the 1965 film version of Boeing Boeing starring Jerry Lewis, Tony Curtis, and Thelma Ritter. Camoletti directed 1 movie, a 1979 adaptation of his play Duos sur canape. It's estimated that 20 million people have seen his plays live and 500 million people have seen a recorded version.
From the Artistic Director: Don't Dress for DinnerMarch 27, 2012The playwright Marc Camoletti may not be a household name here in the US, but his work has been seen all over the world, touching some 55 countries and a multitude of languages. Camoletti, who passed away in 2003 at the age of 79, was arguably the modern day master of the French farce, but it's taken a while for Americans to jump on board and appreciate his work the way the rest of the world has for so long.

From the Artistic Director: Look Back in AngerJanuary 12, 2012Look Back in Anger holds a rather important place in theatre history. First produced in 1956, this drama created an uproar with its look into the cramped apartment of Jimmy Porter and his wife Alison, revealing the seething emotions simmering just below the surface of a new class of young British men and women.
