One of Neil Simon’s most popular comedies, Rumors takes place in the posh suburban residence of New York’s deputy mayor, Charley Brock who, at the beginning of the show, is lying off-stage with a bullet hole in his earlobe. This puts a slight crimp in the plans for a tenth anniversary party for himself and his equally absent wife, Myra. As the guests arrive, each couple tries to keep each new arrival from finding out about Charley’s possible suicide attempt. The confusion is not helped by the plethora of rumors about Charley, Myra and most of the guests.

It opened on Broadway in 1988 to rave reviews and ran for 535 performances. Time Magazine called it, "An old-fashioned door slamming, crockery-smashing farce."

Curtain on Fridays and Saturdays is at 7:30 PM; Sundays at 2:00 PM. Seating begins 1/2 hour before the curtain rises.

NOTE: This show contains strong language and mature subject matter.
