“A wacky tale of love, murder, and shoes!”
— Dramatic Publishing Company
It all started when Delores, an unhappy housewife, and George, a shoe salesman, met at Shoe Fantasy—and it was love at first shoe-fitting. The only thing standing in the way was Delores' doting but half-witted husband, Marvin, who would never agree to a divorce. So there was only one thing left to do: kill Marvin so they can run off together and live a carefree life of passion and romance in a tropical paradise.
The lovers hatch a plan over dinner, but complications arise—and what should have been a simple, foolproof scheme quickly spirals into chaos. Things take an unexpected turn when Esperanza, the eccentric Spanish-speaking maid, shows up on the wrong night and she, too, falls for George.
Now George and Delores must improvise wildly to get rid of the lovesick Esperanza and follow through with their plan—without killing each other first! Their attempts get funnier and funnier as the lovers try again and again to finish the job, only to have Esperanza and Marvin unknowingly foil their plans each time— resulting in a whirlwind of romance, sabotage, and perfectly orchestrated mayhem.
** Pre-sale for MFT Season Pass Holders begins Aug. 4 and ends Aug. 17 @ 6pm. **
** Tickets go on sale to the general public Aug. 18. **
Produced by special arrangement with THE DRAMATIC PUBLISHING COMPANY of Woodstock, Illinois
