Winner 2008 Tony Award, Best Revival of a Play
Comedy / Characters: 3 male, 3 femaleScenery: Interior This boulevard comedy was a smash hit in Paris, where it played for over two years, and in London, where critical acclaim greeted the Apollo Theatre production. Bernard is planing a weekend with his chic Parisian mistress in a French farmhouse. He has arranged for a cordon bleu cook to prepare gourmet delights, is packing his wife Jacqueline off to her mother's, and has even invited his best friend to provide the alibi. It's foolproof; what could possibly go wrong? Suppose Robert turns up not knowing why he has been invited? Suppose Robert and Jacqueline are secret lovers? What happens if the cook is mistaken for the mistress and the mistress is unable to cook? An evening of hilarious confusion ensues as Bernard and Robert improvise at breakneck speed. "Hurtling along at the speed of light, [this] breathtaking farce is a near faultless piece of theatrical invention." Guardian. "Nifty." London Sunday Times
Bernard has discovered that his wife, Jacqueline, is having an affair with Robert. Being a reasonable businessman, Bernard gives Robert two options to compensate for the affair: either he will sleep with Robert's wife in order to keep things even, or he will have him killed.4 women, 2 men
Full Length, Comedy Characters: 2 males, 3 females Scenery: Interior Bernard has foolishly asked his mistress, Brigit, to his home on her birthday despite the fact his wife Jacqueline is present. He has also invited his oldest friend, Robert and asks him to pretend Brigit is his mistress. Robert refuses as he is having an affair with Jacqueline, but Bernard cunningly involves him anyway. By chance, a temporary maid engaged for the evening arrives when Jacqueline and Bernard are out and her name is also Brigit. Robert mistakes her for Bernard's girl friend. Frantic complications in which identities, plots and counter plots and bedrooms are exchanged with ever increasing confusion transpire until an unexpected ending makes everyone happy including the maid who has acquired a mink coat and lots of money. A long running success in London.
M2 F4 Revived in the West End in 2007, Boeing-Boeing is a 1960s French farce adapted for the English-speaking stage. Self-styled Parisian lothario Bernard has three fiancees, each beautiful airline hostesses with frequent "layovers". There's American Gloria, German Gretchen and Italian Gabriella. He keeps "one up, one down and one pending" until unexpected schedule changes bring all three to Paris and his apartment at the same time. Bernard's old school friend Robert, a visitor from the provinces, and his housekeeper Bertha, attempt to diffuse the inevitable chaos.
