Based on “The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo” by Michael Butterworth

Embark on a madcap adventure with this hilarious murder mystery farce from Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (Seussical, Once On This Island, Ragtime). A British shoe salesman living a humdrum life learns that he has inherited six million dollars from his uncle—provided he takes his uncle’s wheelchair-bound corpse on a vacation to Monte Carlo! Mayhem ensues, with a host of zany characters, fast-paced comedy and delightful songs.

Veterans mix with talented newcomers in this strong cast. Director Anne Bialke has headed numerous productions in the Trumansburg area, and has worked in many aspects of theatre, both performing and technical. Music director Alice Ploss has led over 19 productions, both locally and in Tokyo, and conducts the Trumansburg Community Chorus.

Join us for this drop-dead funny musical romp!
