BOEING, BOEING takes place in a single day for self-styled Parisian lothario Bernard, who has Italian, German, and American fiancées, each a beautiful airline hostess with frequent “layovers.” He keeps “one up, one down, and one pending” until unexpected schedule changes bring all three to Paris, and Bernard’s apartment, at the same time.

Mariemont Players Inc.

Walton Creek Theatre

Directed by Ed Cohen
Produced by Vicki Rafferty

Cast: Ryan Bowron as Ken Gorman, Katey Blood as Chris Gorman, Eric Day as Lenny Ganz, Kathie Labanz as Claire Ganz, Forrest Fairley as Ernie Cusack, Arlene Balczo as Cookie Cusack, Aaron Whitehead as Glen Cooper, Kate Mock Elliott as Cassie Cooper, Arny Stoller as Officer Ben Welch & Steve Balczo as Officer Pudney

At a large, tastefully-appointed Sneden’s Landing townhouse, the Deputy Mayor of New York has just shot himself. Though it’s only a flesh wound, Charlie Brock’s self-inflicted injury sets off a series of events causing four couples to experience a severe attack of farce.​

As their tenth wedding anniversary commences, Charlie lies bleeding in another room, and his wife Myra is nowhere in sight. The first guests, lawyer Ken Gorman and his wife Chris, scramble to get “the story” straight before the other guests arrive. As the confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity.
