Leading Ladies

Leading Ladies is a hilarious farce about two actors who pose as long-lost heirs—only to discover the heirs are nieces, not nephews.
Leading Ladies is a fast-paced farce from Ken Ludwig, the master of modern comedy, filled with mistaken identities, outrageous disguises, and non-stop laughter. The story follows two down-on-their-luck English actors, Jack and Leo, who find themselves in rural Pennsylvania performing Shakespeare to Moose Lodge audiences. When they learn that an old, wealthy woman is about to leave her fortune to her two long-lost relatives, the scheming duo decides to pass themselves off as the missing heirs. Their plan hits a hilarious snag when they discover the heirs are not nephews, but nieces—and soon the men are donning dresses, wigs, and high heels to keep the con alive. Things get even more complicated when Leo falls head-over-heels in love with the old woman’s actual niece, throwing romance, greed, and deception into the mix. With its whirlwind of slapstick humor, witty banter, and outrageous situations, Leading Ladies is a riotous comedy that keeps audiences laughing from curtain to curtain.
