What's Up in Lansing: Moon Over Buffalo

Posted

Interested in a little situational comedy? Why not try the 1953 classic, “Moon Over Buffalo?” The comedic play by Ken Ludwig was made especially famous when Carol Burnett was part of the cast. The show centers around two former Broadway stars who take their touring company to Buffalo, New York. When the two get there, troubles unfold with an act of infidelity, a drinking binge and a talent scout. The highly physical play involves everything from a wrestling match, a round of fencing and a variety of other, onstage antics. Viewers can also expect a little bit of slapstick and screwball comedy to round off their evening in “Moon Over Buffalo.” The show is directed by Mary Job, who won this year’s Pulsar Award for Best Director in “Taking Shakespeare.”
