A Funny Thing Happened …
Broadway’s greatest farce is light, fast-paced, witty, irreverent and one of the funniest musicals ever written. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum takes comedy back to its roots, combining situations from time-tested, 2000-year-old comedies of Roman playwright Plautus with the infectious energy of classic vaudeville. The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors and a showgirl or two.
Aug. 2 through Aug. 4. Show times vary. Ticket prices vary. Queen Street Playhouse. 20 Queen St. Downtown. forumchs.eventbrite.com
