INDIANAPOLIS — Madcap physical comedy, romantic intrigue and golf will be on the menu when the University of Indianapolis presents The Fox on the Fairway as its annual dinner theater production, opening Feb. 21.
First staged in 2010, the play by Ken Ludwig (Lend Me a Tenor, Moon Over Buffalo) is a tribute to great British farces of the early 20th century. The action is centered on a golf tournament at a stuffy country club and a love affair between hired hand Justin (senior Ross Percell) and waitress Louise (sophomore Ellie Delap). Rounding out the ensemble cast are Nate Coder, Morgan Jackson, Daryl Hollenquest, Kelly Pendleton and Kyle Mishler.
Performances are scheduled Feb. 21-23, 28 and March 1 in UIndy’s Schwitzer Student Center, 1400 E. Hanna Ave. The 8 p.m. curtain time is preceded by a buffet dinner at 6:45 p.m.
Admission, which includes dinner, is $26 for general audiences and $24 for seniors, groups and non-UIndy students with ID. Tickets are available only in advance, not at the door. For reservations and more information, call (317) 788-3251 or visit www.uindy.edu/arts/ETC.
