"A grand slam! A slam dunk!"
--The Washington City Paper

Following the Tony-nominated revival of Lend Me a Tenor on Broadway, Ken Ludwig's new play, A Fox On the Fairway, debuted at the Signature Theatre in Washington, D.C. on October 19, 2010. A tribute to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, A Fox On the Fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp which pulls the rug out from underneath the stuffy denizens of a private country club. Filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors, and over-the-top romantic shenanigans, it's a furiously paced comedy that recalls the Marx Brothers' classics.
