The Pennsylvania Playhouse presents 'A Fox on the Fairway', written by award-winning playwright Ken Ludwig, and directed by George B. Miller, running Jun 1st through June 17, 2018.
A tribute from Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox On the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp, which pulls the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club.
Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors, dueling golf clubs, and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it's a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers' classics. It’s a charmingly madcap adventure about love, life, and man's eternal love affair with...golf.
Critics have called it a hole-in-one hit:
“A Fox on the Fairway is phenomenally funny!” - New Jersey Star Ledger
“Ken Ludwig has a wicked sense of comedic anarchy, giving his characters such zany idiosyncrasies that they soar to dizzying heights!” - The Washington Examiner
“There’s something magical about the sound of explosive laughter in a theater. That is the kind of magic offered with Ken Ludwig’s A Fox on the Fairway.” - Alexandria Gazette Packet
