CVLT's "Don't Dress for Dinner" opens this weekend! (May 31 - June 15, Chagrin Falls)
Chagrin Valley Little Theatre presents *DON’T DRESS FOR DINNER* written by Marc Camoletti and adapted by Robin Hawdon May 31 – June 15, 2024 Performances Fridays & Saturdays at 7:30 PM and Sundays June 2 & 9 at 2:00 PM Tickets are $21 with a $4 discount for seniors and military. CVLT.org or (440) 247-8955 Director Christopher Bizub’s deliciously funny dish calls for one philandering husband (Joe Kenderes), his mistress (Katie Wells), and one Cordon Bleu chef (Mia Radabaugh) hired for their secret weekend getaway to a countryside chateau. His best friend (Vince Stillitano) is in the mix as their facilitator and alibi. Things get spicy when adding a dash of his wife (Jaimee Moore) and the mistress’s husband (Barry Moses). Blend with some classic mistaken identities and hilarious mishaps, then stir with a slapstick and turn up the heat! The result is a wild comedy that’ll satisfy your appetite for laughs. This two-act play was written by Camoletti as somewhat of a sequel to his smash 1960s hit comedy /Boeing Boeing/. Hawdon’s English version, adapted from the original with his own changes and additions, was a long-running smash in Paris and London in the 1990s. It was followed by a Tony Award nominated revival on Broadway in 2012, not to mention Chagrin Valley Little Theatre’s own 2011 production that received rave reviews from audiences and critics alike. The production team for CVLT’s presentation includes stage manager Brittany Bizub, producers Cindee Catalano and Mason Stewart, costumer Kelsey Tomlinson, scenic and lighting director Tom West, prop mistress Nancy Rogoff, and lighting operator T.J. Hayes. The play is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals. Due to limited parking and the major bridge reconstruction project in Chagrin Falls, ticket pre-purchases and early arrival are highly recommended.
