Playhouse 1960 opens 2022 with The Foreigner, a fun, two-act comedy by American playwright Larry Shue. The story takes place in a fishing lodge in rural Tilghman County, Georgia where two Englishmen, Froggy and Charlie, arrive as guests. The shy Charlie agreed to accompany Froggy on the trip after his sick wife begged him to go. When people at the lodge try to talk to Charlie, however, he remains silent: he is terribly shy, depressed about his wife's illness, and cannot find the words to reply. Froggy claims that Charlie cannot talk because he is a "foreigner" from an exotic country, and does not understand English. Taking the explanation that he's a non-English speaker as fact, the lodge's guests quickly begin revealing their secrets, and Charlie soon discovers scandals amongst some of the residents of the lodge.Playhouse 1960 is an all-volunteer community theatre located at 6814 Gant Road, Houston Tx 77066. The Foreigner runs January 7, 8, 14, 15, 21, & 22 @ 8:00 pm and January 23 @ 3:00 pm. Ticket prices are Adults $23.00, Senior/Student/Veterans/Active Military & Spouses $20.00.
