Lawrence Jameson makes his lavish living by talking rich ladies out of their money. Freddy Benson more humbly swindles women by appealing to their compassion with fabricated stories about his grandmother’s failing health. After meeting on a train, they attempt to work together, only to find that this small French town isn’t big enough for the two of them. They agree on a settlement: the first one to extract $50,000 from a young female target, heiress, Christine Colgate, wins, and the other must leave town.
Nominated for a staggering 11 Tony Awards, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is a musical based on the 1988 comedy film of the same name, starring Michael Caine and Steve Martin.
