Workshop Players Theatre-in-the-Round presents Larry Shue's wonderful  
comedy, The Foreigner. 

Imagine two Englishmen arriving as  guests to a fishing lodge in rural 
Tilghman County Georgia.  Froggy  convinces his extremely shy friend Charlie to get 
away from the stresses of his  terminally ill wife by joining him on this 
journey.  Charlie asks only that  he not be required to socialize with any guests. 
 So, Froggy tells the  guests at the lodge that Charlie is foreign and can 
not speak English. This  attempt to keep them from interacting with Charlie has 
the hilarious opposite  effect. Since they assume Charlie cannot understand, 
they reveal their  secrets and Charlie learns of the scandals amongst the 
residents of the lodge.  The result is hysterical to say the least. If you need a 
good laugh this  summer, this is the show to see.

Director, Dave Mackeigan has assembled a  terrific cast. Froggy (Mike 
Leuszler), Charlie (Jack Warren), Betty (Dorothy  Greenholtz ), and David(Brett 
Miller) will be familiar faces to regulars  of Workshop Players. Catherine(Anne 
Rinehart), Ellard (Jeremy Warren) and  Owen (Herb Hammer) are all newcomers to 
the Workshop stage. 

Please note: There will be a strobe light in use during this  performance.

p.m., with Sunday matinees on July 17  and 24 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $10 each
