The Underpants
Adapted by Steve Martin
Coffeehouse: Jan 14 - 31, 2016
It’s 1910. On a beautiful morning in the German city of Dusseldorf, Louise Maske’s underpants fall down in public. Though she wore a long skirt, the whole town saw her bloomers! Scandal! Her conservative husband, Theo, is mortified. He fears Louise’s brief display will cost him his job, but instead it attracts two men, each of whom wants to rent the spare room in the Maske’s home and seduce Louise. Oblivious of their amorous objectives, Theo splits the room between them, setting off a chain of affairs and attempted affairs in this raunchy and ribald satire.
Warning: This show contains a small amount of mild-profanity, as well as large amounts of witty banter, references to adult-type touching, vintage lingerie, and hilarity.
