What can possibly go wrong when two English Shakespearean actors, Jack and Leo, find themselves so down on their luck that they are performing "Scenes from Shakespeare" on the Moose Lodge circuit in the Amish country of Pennsylvania. When they hear that an old lady in York, PA is about to die and leave her fortune to her two long lost English nephews, they resolve to pass themselves off as her beloved relatives and get the cash. The trouble is, when they get to York, they find out that the relatives aren't nephews, but nieces!
A hilarious comedy by the author of Lend Me a Tenor and Moon Over Buffalo.
The cast, under the direction of Pat Payne, includes Andy Anderson as Leo, Bernie Cardell as Jack, Jan Cleveland as Florence, Dell Domnik as Duncan, Sarah Mae Johnson as Meg, Jesse Pearlman as Doc, Allison Smith as Audrey and Luke Terry in the role of Butch.
"Ken Ludwig: established himself as the American playwright to look to for the fast and furious comedic stylings of those masters...Slapstick goofiness, scrambled Shakespeare, and good-natured laughs make Leading Ladies an irresistible treat." - Montana Reperatory Theatre.
"Ludwig's newest farce is so funny, it will make sophisticated and reasonable men and women of the 21st century cackle till their faces hurt." - Houston Press
