The renowned comic actor and author of the Rep's 2003 hit, Picasso at the Lapin Agile, provides a wild satire adapted from the classic German play about Louise and Theo Markes, a couple whose conservative existence is shattered when Louise's bloomers fall down in public. This wildly hilarious play showcases Steve Martin's impeccable ability to combine social commentary with utter wackiness. Nothing is sacred and no innuendo is off limits in this fast-paced romp through early 20 th century Germany.

"This is funny stuff ... a fine play ... with funny characters and lightning flashes of wit." - TheaterMania.com.

Basic Character Flaws

Seaside Meeting Hall Theatre
10pm - after THE UNDERPANTS
$10/$8 members

The Flaws, made up of Matt Scott, Teance Blackburn, Dorian Normand and Kevin Boyle, create hilarious characters in absurd situations. Offering a variety of comedy styles influenced by anything from the Simpsons to Monty Python to the Office, the Flaws have something for everyone. Without resorting to vulgar, shock comedy, the goal is for the audience to come to a show and escape from the real world and just have a great time.

Sorry folks, the actors leave town :wave:and sets get dismantled to make room for the new show in October, The Real Thing, by Tom Stoppard (Oscar-winning writer of Shakespeare in Love).

And then in December we will have Tuna Christmas, another hilarious comedy.

But I'm glad to hear we have gained a few fans with this one. I promise we'll keep bringing you great theatre as long as you guys keep showing up to watch! :popcorn:

We will videotape the show for archives, but there are pretty strict copyright rules about showing it to the public... :bang:

And honestly, live theatre just doesn't translate well to the screen unless you film it multiple times from various angles and then edit them together.

Don't worry though, there will be plenty more to laugh at from the Rep.

I am a very private person...;-) . I know exactly what you mean about live theater, and the Seaside Rep's is so wonderful and intimate. What's shaking in October/November?

Your name was invoked at the Rep last night. As we were waiting for the show to start last night, the gal behind me tapped me on the shoulder and said 'I know you from somewhere! I know! You were dancing with Miss Kitty at Dikki Du".:floor:

I know you're right but I mentioned to hop that you should do a clip or 2 on youtube to post here and elsewhere. Just a 5 second clip of one of his entrances would have generated a 5-page thread here. :lol:

Steeling1 I loved the show and will most likely join on some level.
Excellent job.....just what I needed, a great laugh...sorry we missed the improv because some of us had not had dinner and so we went to the tarpon club...should have stayed (that is another thread)
