Leading ladies at 1812 theatre is a hilarious take on the movie Some like it hot.
According to director Pip Le Blond, Jack and Leo are two English actors whose careers are not exactly going to plan.
The Two hapless actors are so down on their luck they find themselves travelling through Amish country, performing in front of Moose Hall crowds.
The money has dried up, the jobs have dried up, and all seems lost, but then Leo reads about a dear old lady whose dying wish is to bequeath her fortune to her two long lost nephews.
After finally convincing Jack this is a great idea, the two head off only to learn the nephews are nieces. No problem though, Jack and Leo are actors.
“Jack and Leo dress up as women because they think they can score some money out of the estate, but of course they fall in love with the girl that lives there.”
“It’s a lot of misunderstandings, love interests and chaos, but it’s terribly funny and a great night of laughs.”
As always, at 1812 theatre, each performance comes with a complimentary supper to enjoy.
Leading Ladies will play from 14 November – 7 December.
