Youth Summer Theater's Performance of Lucky Stiff (details)

Lucky Stiff is a hilarious and heart-felt musical about Harry Witherspoon, an unassuming shoe salesman who lives an uneventful life in England. His life takes a dramatic turn when he learns that his uncle Anthony has been murdered. Harry learns that he stands to inherit $6,000,000 from his uncle – but only if he agrees to take his Uncle’s corpse on a trip to Monte Carlo. Otherwise, the money will all go to his uncle’s favorite charity, the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn. In a quest to gain his uncle’s inheritance, Harry sets out to fulfill Anthony’s dying wish. However, in Monte Carlo, he meets Rita La Porta (the legally blind once-lover of his uncle), a flashy tour guide name Luigi, a representative of the Universal Dog Home named Annabel and a whole host of quirky characters in hot pursuit of Uncle Anthony’s money. Of course, it’s also a love story and there’s tap dancing.

Tickets are available by credit card at 367-1544. They may also be purchased in person at the Phillips Center or from a cast member, and at the door if still available.
