Don't Dress for Dinner
by Way Off Broadway Community Players
Jan. 06 (2014)
Bernard is planning a romantic weekend with his chic Parisian mistress in his charming converted French farm-house, whilst his wife, Jacqueline, is away. He has arranged for a cordon bleu Chef to prepare gourmet delights, and has even invited his best friend, Robert, along - to provide the alibi. It's foolproof; what could possibly go wrong? Right? Well.... Suppose Robert turns up not realizing quite why he has been invited. Suppose Robert and Jacqueline are secret lovers, and when she sees Robert, they determine that she will NOT be leaving for the weekend. Suppose the Chef has to pretend to be the mistress and the mistress, who is unable to cook, has to pretend to be the Chef. Suppose everyone's alibi gets confused with everyone else's. Suppose there’s another surprise guest. Simmered together, you have a delicious evening full of hilarious confusion as everyone tries to blend together all the improvised arrangements at break-neck speed.
