BOEING, BOEING
Fasten your seatbelts and put your tray table in the upright position and take off into this whirlwind world where love, lies, and airline schedules collide in this comedy, jet-setting at full throttle!
Our seat belts were fastened and tables stowed as we checked our boarding passes and flew back in time to the swinging 1960s with bachelor Bernard! In his chic Paris flat, Bernard juggled the affection of three unsuspecting airline stewardesses, all of them Bernard’s fiancées! But as the weather turned and a new, faster Boeing jet took to the skies, his elaborate ruse and meticulous timetable-keeping are tested. Together with his friend Robert and Bernard’s long-suffering, sharp-tongued French housekeeper Berthe, he keeps “one up, one down, and one pending”.
The plot thickens, and the stage is set for comedic chaos as Gloria, Gabriella and Gretchen land in Paris and Bernard’s apartment all at once! .
Will Bernard’s triple life withstand the turbulence?
