The Fox on the Fairway is a hilarious romp that tells the story of a golf tournament between two snobbish country clubs. Bingham, the owner of Quail Valley Country Club, places a bet with Dickie, the owner of rival club Crouching Squirrel, over the tournament. He bets the club, his savings, and even his wife’s livelihood. Modeled after the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, “The Fox on the Fairway” is filled with mistaken identities, slamming doors and romantic shenanigans.

The cast includes: Barbara Carpenter (Sterling) as Muriel; Will Olivier (Sterling) as Justin; Dell Pendergrast (McLean) as Mr. Bingham; Jessie Roberts (Great Falls) as Pamela Peabody; and Bob Rosenburg (Leesburg) as Dickie Bell.

Produced by Leah Aspell (Reston), The Fox on the Fairway will be directed by Colleen Stock (Ashburn), and stage managed byLiz Stock-Olivier (Sterling).
