Farce

This boisterous farce delights with non stop laughs. Bud, a Hollywood screenwriter noted for such low budget classics as The Return of the Radioactive Rabbit, decides to give up life in the fast lane to buy the Ritz Apache Lodge in Arizona, a termite pile close to the fabled lost Dutchman Mine. Bud is convinced that a phony map and some digging will soon make him a millionaire. He doesn't figure on the inhabitants of the lodge: a little old lady from Pasadena who communicates with space people, outraged tourists who thought the Ritz Apache would be like the Ritz in Paris, an emotional mobster who won't stay dead and aspiring starlet Chi Chi Vazoom who finds lizards cute. When Bud's zany mother arrives straight from a flop television series, the madcap escapade goes into high gear and the jokes come fast and furious! Did we mention the FBI, the state lottery, the mysterious flight bag, alligator wrestling, brussels sprouts on a stick, the corpse on roller skates?

FEE: $60 per performance.
