A mixture of alcohol and misinformation at a Buffalo, NY theater creates a hilarious backstage farce filled with running gags, comic invention, shtick, and a pure sense of absurdity.

September 11-14, 18-21, 25-27, 2003

Directed by R. Bruce Warren

Audience Advisory:

Moon Over Buffalo is suitable in subject matter for all audiences.
Contains mild adult language.

Charlotte and George are playing rep in Buffalo. If you speak the lingo, you know that's very, very far from Broadway, but at least they're not doing commercials. Their daughter Roz (a darn fine young actress by the way) has had it with the hand-to-mouth existence and is marrying a safe and solvent young man. Paul, the company's young manager, wishes she weren't (you see where this subplot is going). We meet this theatrical family when the supporting actor has just walked out, the ingénue is headed to the doctor's for a pregnancy test, the payroll is two weeks overdue, and there's a matinee in an hour. It would all seem like just another humdrum day in the theater if it weren't for an unexpected phone call from their New York agent….Ken Ludwig, author of Lend Me a Tenor, gives us another happy, witty, rollicking farce to start our season with a whole lot of laughter.
