RUMOURS by Neil Simon
Gunshots!
Lies!
Spasming backs!
It should be a peaceful,
elegant wedding anniversary party. But when Ken and Chris find their host
Charley, a prominent Government official, with a bullet wound in his ear lobe,
the couple realise they must lie to protect his reputation! Len and Claire
arrive, themselves injured in a car crash, and are soon joined by others each
with their own set of problems. A second gunshot leaves Ken temporarily deaf,
the police arrive and Len must pretend he is Charley, concocting a touching and
fantastic explanation...
One of Neil Simon’s most
celebrated farces! Can you get your head around the lies and deception whilst
sorting fact from the “Rumours?”
