Each fianc\u00e9e is an air hostess, so Bernard can spend two days with Gloria before she takes off for San Francisco. Then Gabriella arrives, after she leaves for Caracas, Gretchen flies in from Stuttgart. Each fianc\u00e9e happily believes she\u2019s the only one. It\u2019s a perfect scheme for the moment. When the airlines introduce a fast new jet and an old friend arrives, there\u2019s trouble in Paris, trouble amounting to the delirious chaos only a great farce and a seven door set can produce. It\u2019s all on view in the Theatreworks revivial of Marc Camoletti\u2019s \u201cBoeing Boeing\u201d, playing Jan. 20-Feb. 13 at the Dusty Loo Bon Vivant Theater.<\/p>\n

\u201cBoeing Boeing\u201d <\/em>features a cast of distinguished regional actors, all perfectly equipped for some high flying antics. Chad Siebert is the handsome Bernard, a preening peacock primed for a fall. Matthew Mueller is his friend from the country, arriving just in time for Bernard\u2019s best laid plans to go haywire. Diana Dresser is Bertha, Bernard\u2019s long suffering maid. Adrian Eglof is the healthy sexy American fianc\u00e9e flying on TWA. Jamie Anne Romero is the exuberant sexy fianc\u00e9e arriving on Air Italia. And look out for Jessica Jackson, the dominating sexy fianc\u00e9e from Lufthansa. Under the direction of David McLendon, this sextet promises a real lift off for the new year. The lighting is by Tonya Moake, the set design by Roy Ballard, and the perfectly tailored costumes by Jan Avramov.<\/p>\n
