The Farmington players will hold open auditions Sunday June 28th at 1pm for the comedy Boeing Boeing by Marc Camoletti. The show won the 2008 Tony award for “Best Revival of a Play.”
It’s the 1960s, and swinging bachelor Bernard couldn’t be happier: a flat in Paris and three gorgeous stewardesses all engaged to him without knowing about each other. But Bernard’s perfect life gets bumpy when his friend Robert comes to stay and a new and speedier Boeing jet throws off all of his careful planning. Soon all three stewardesses are in town simultaneously, timid Robert is forgetting which lies to tell to whom, and catastrophe looms. A riotous farce that recently enjoyed hit revivals in London and New York, Boeing Boeing is now set to arrive in Farmington Hills—fasten your seat belts!
