Synopsis

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (based on the movie of the same name) is a musical comedy set on the French Riviera, where two con men – cultured charmer Lawrence Jameson and small-time hustler Freddy Benson – compete to swindle wealthy women. Their rivalry leads to an outrageous bet to see who can con an heiress out of $50,000 first, sparking a series of clever schemes, mistaken identities, and comic twists. Filled with jazzy, sophisticated songs by David Yazbek and a book by Jeffrey Lane, the show delivers a blend of glamour, farce, and sharp humour in a spirited battle of wits.
