Lucky Stiff at the Landor Theatre Feb 2012

Lucky Stiff, book & lyrics by Lynn Ahrens, music by Stephen Flaherty, based on 'The Man Who Broke The Bank at Monte Carlo' by Michael Butterworth is at the Landor Theatre, south London from 01 Feb 2012 - 25 Feb 2012.

Directed by Rob McWhir, lighting by Ben Pickersgill, choreography by James Houlbrooke, musical director Nick House and produced by Almost-normal Ltd & Theatrica Ltd.

The story revolves around Harry Witherspoon, an unassuming English shoe salesman, who is forced to take the embalmed body of his recently murdered, Atlantic City casino managing, Uncle Tony on a vacation to Monte Carlo. Should he succeed in passing his uncle off as alive, he will inherit $6,000,000 but if he doesn't the money goes to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn...or perhaps it will go to the gun-toting wife of the casino owner...? ...but what's the hen-pecked optometrist from New Jersey doing in the South of France... or the Arab...or the Italian? Definitely, Something Funny's Going On!
