Red Herring

By Michael Hollinger
Directed by Paige McGinley

February 23-26, 2006
Thursday-Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 2pm
Leeds Theatre

"Exceedingly funny. A genuinely human comedy about six people in search of love in a mixed-up world. A thoroughly engaging piece of theatre." -Philadelphia Inquirer.

"Hilarious. A valentine celebrating love and marriage. A fun, engaging, farcical romp with a cleverly complex plot and a loving heart." -Main Line Times.

"It's a knock-out-a surprising, clever comedy that keeps you laughing and even thinking all the way." -Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

"Very funny and perceptive.sharp, witty, and entertaining." -Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

 

Three love stories, a murder mystery, and a nuclear espionage plot converge in this noir comedy about marriage and other explosive devices. It's 1952: America's on the verge of the H-bomb, Dwight Eisenhower's on the campaign trail, and I Love Lucy's on Monday nights. Meanwhile, Senator Joe McCarthy's daughter just got engaged to a Soviet spy, and Boston detective Maggie Pelletier has to find out who dumped the dead guy in the Harbor-or else lose out on a honeymoon in Havana. A blunt-nosed, sharp-eyed look at love and tying (and untying, and retying) the knot.


PLEASE NOTE: All Sunday performances are now 2 PM Matinees.
