Red Herring
by Playhouse 2000

Sep. 20 - Sep. 21

Part spy thriller, part love story, part screwball comedy, Red Herring is set in the 1950’s at the height of the Cold War. It blends romance, mystery, and political intrigue into a whip-smart parody of love and espionage.

We know you appreciate plays that make you laugh while also making you think. Red Herring overflows with fast-paced fun and witty wordplay, but underneath the comedy it’s about truth, trust, and human connection. It’s intimate, entertaining, and clever—the kind of play you’ll leave talking about.
