The Red Barn Summer Theatre presents “Boeing Boeing,” by Marc Camoletti (translated by Beverly Cross) as its second production of the 2023 season, sponsored by Zachary Confections, Inc.
This high-flying farce takes place in a swinging bachelor’s busy apartment in Paris where Bernard, a 1960’s era vintage playboy, has three fiancées, all flight attendants for major airlines, that he manages to keep separate with help from a stressed-out French maid and a well-thumbed airline timetable. Unfortunately for Bernard, when the Boeing Aircraft Company develops a speedier jet airliner his hysterical juggling act is about to come to a frantic, hilarious end.
“Boeing Boeing” opens on Wednesday, June 21th and runs Wednesday through Sunday for two weeks until Saturday July 1st. Tickets are $20 for adults, $14 for students and are available on-line at redbarntheatre.com. Tickets may also be purchased by telephone at 765-659-1657 or in person at the Red Barn Box Office that is open Wednesday through Saturday from 5:00 to 9:00 and Sundays from 12-2.
