Main Street Players present “The Underpants” opening Sept. 29

Community Wednesday, September 27, 2017

Theobald Maske has an unusual problem…his wife's underpants won't stay on. One Sunday morning they fall to her ankles right in the middle of town – a public scandal! 

Mortified, Theo swears to keep her at home until she can find some less unruly undies. Amid this chaos he's trying to rent a room in their flat. The prospective lodgers have some underlying surprises of their own. 

In The Underpants, Steve Martin brings his comic genius and sophisticated literary style to Carl Sternheim's classic 1910 farce.

The show is directed by Danny Nieves and production manager is Dennis Lyzniak. The Underpants runs from September 29 – October 22, with performances on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., and Sundays at 2 p.m. with a one-time showing at 5 p.m. on Sunday, October 8. 

The cast features Sheri Wieseman as Louise, Michael Fernandez as Theo, Steven Chambers as Versati, Anthony Wolff as Cohen, Lucy Nunez as Gertrude, Murphy Hayes as Klinglehoff, and Michael Cabal as The King. 

Tickets are $30 for adults, and $25 for students, seniors, and military personnel, and may be purchased in advance at www.mainstreetplayers.com or at the door 30 minutes prior to showtime.
