The Théâtre du Bedeau presents Le Dindon, a period comedy by Georges Feydeau. Directed by Marie-Brigitte Lehouillier. Pontagnac, a womanizer, pursues Lucienne to her home where he makes advances. Vatelin, Lucienne's husband, suddenly appears. The situation gets sorted out between friends, as Vatelin, knowing Pontagnac's ways, forgives him. But an unexpected event will sow discord, when Maggy, one of Vatelin's former mistresses, arrives at his home.
These fine folks then unwittingly find themselves in a hotel room, along with other colourful characters. A series of misunderstandings, lies and surprising twists ensue, complete with women hidden in closets, entangled husbands and slamming doors. After all these machinations, it becomes clear just who is the real "dindon" (laughing stock).
Schedule: Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8 p.m.
Admission: $12 for adults, $6 for children 16 and under.
