Events Description
An award-winning comic thriller by a highly regarded Canadian playwright, Filthy Rich is a fast-paced play written in a dramatic film noir style. The hero, Tyrone M. Power a tough-guy stereotype (”my mother was a romantic”), is drunkenly writing a novel when the world rushes in and sweeps him into the middle of the kidnapping of a prominent politician and the murder of an investigative reporter.
He is set upon by two very rich sisters who insist he is the only person capable of finding the kidnapped politician, a detective who suspects he is involved in the crime and a Mafioso who fears he may know too much. Will Tyrone find his man before it is too late? Who really are the good guys? The witty dialogue and non-stop action will keep audiences on the edge of their seats. Be prepared for some comic twists and dramatic surprises.
As the New York Times review said:
“George F. Walker, the playwright, is a Canadian who has an eye for the ridiculous, a good ear for old film dialogue, and an imagination that packs his play with action – and mystery. . . Nonetheless, laughter is all too rare and there is a lot of it in Filthy Rich.”
