Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
At the Lake Worth Playhouse
Jan 20 – Feb 6, 2011
Based on the popular 1988 film, this madcap musical centers on two con men living on the French Riviera. One is the suave and sophisticated Lawrence Jameson who makes his lavish living by talking rich ladies out of their fortunes. The other is a small-time crook, Freddy Benson, who swindles women by waking their compassion with fabricated stories of his grandmother’s failing health. After meeting on a train, they unsuccessfully attempt to work together only to find that this small French town isn’t big enough for the two of them.
