Moon Over Buffalo at Morgan-Wixson Theatre

The hilarious Moon Over Buffalo centers on George and Charlotte Hay, fading stars of the 1950's. At the moment, they’re playing Private Lives and Cyrano De Bergerac in rep in Buffalo, New York with five other actors. On the brink of a disastrous split-up caused by George’s dalliance with a young ingénue, they receive word that they might just have one last shot at stardom: Frank Capra is coming to town to see their matinee, and if he likes what he sees, he might cast them in his movie remake of "The Scarlet Pimpernel." Unfortunately for George and Charlotte, everything that could go wrong does go wrong! This beloved wacky backstage comedy by the author of Lend me a Tenor brought Carol Burnett out of retirement to play Charlotte on Broadway. The New York Post called it "one of the most hysterical things ever put onstage." Directed by Michael Thomas-Visgar.
