      About the show: The show is a tribute from Ken Ludwig to the great English farces of the 1930’s and 1940’s. The play takes audiences on a hilarious romp, which begins as Quail Alley County Club prepares to take on archrival Crouching Squirrel in the annual Inter-Club Golf Tournament. With a sizable wager at stake, the contest plays out amidst three love affairs, a disappearing diamond ring, objectionable sweaters and an
 exploding vase.
