Tred Avon Players are presenting the classic comedy Charley’s Aunt by Brandon Thomas on February 13 through February 23, 2020 at the Oxford Community Center. Alison Lynch is the director.
Jack loves Kitty Verdun and Charley loves Miss Amy Spettigue. They invite the ladies to
meet Charley’s wealthy aunt from Brazil, “where the nuts come from.” Cancelling her visit at
the last minute, the millionaire aunt sends the boys into cataclysmic confusion. What do they do now? The problem is solved by drafting their feckless Oxford undergrad pal into a black satin skirt, bloomers and wig. As “Charley’s Aunt”, this charming frump is introduced to the ladies, to Jack’s father and to Stephen Spettigue, Amy’s guardian. When the real aunt turns up, classic comic confusion ensues!
Performances dates are Thursday through Saturday on February 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, 22 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday matinees on February 16 & 23 at 2:00 p.m.
