Three condominiums!
Two fabulous stars!
One hysterical comedy!
South Florida comes to New York in Flamingo Court, Life in three condos by Luigi Creatore. Starring Jamie Farr (television’s “M*A*S*H,” Guys & Dolls) and Tony Award nominee Anita Gillette (Chapter Two, They’re Playing Our Song), and directed by Steven Yuhasz, Flamingo Court plays at New World Stages (340 West 50th Street), stage #2.
Farr and Gillette take on multiple roles in a three-act comedy featuring the loopy and endearing residents of Flamingo Court, a South Florida apartment complex. Each floor is another story with a lesson to learn. Sex after sixty’s no sin. Where there’s a will, there’s a way (for your kids to fight over the inheritance). And love, at any age, can be a new and beautiful thing.
Presented by Theatre 21 and Carolyn Rossi Copeland, Flamingo Court also features Lucy Martin, Herbert Rubens and Joe Vincent. The scenic design is by Jim Youmans; costume design by Carol Sherry; lighting design by Herrick Goldman; and sound design by David Arnold.
The critics are raving about Flamingo Court with John Simon of Bloomberg calling the show “a wall-to-wall hoot for old and young alike. The audience laughed up a Florida-worthy hurricane! Wonderful performances by the spirited Jamie Farr and the adorable Anita Gillette.” UPI calls Flamingo Court “without question, the funniest show in town. Laughs galore,” while The Associated Press says the show has “License to kill with laughter. You’ll be in heaven with this trio of vignettes written by Luigi Creatore.” The New York Times praised “Flamingo Court knows its prime audience –the AARP crowd – and plays to it skillfully.”
Flamingo Court plays at New World Stages, Stage #2 (340 West 50th Street), Monday and Wednesday through Saturday at 8:00PM with matinees Wednesday and Saturday at 2:00PM and Sunday at 3:00PM.
