A revisit of the casting-couch scenario, but this time the tables are turned. Lucy, Cathy, and Anne worry that their best years are nearly behind them, so they come up with a cunning plan to seduce hot, young men while they still can.
To their surprise, it actually works. That is, until they are caught in their own web of deceit. An unexpected twist is turned on the charming yet oblivious women. The hour-long play just flies by as the audience is treated to a humorous look at life with or without men.
This brand new comedy written and directed by Virginia Proud, who also stars in the play, alongside Beth Spisljak, Esther Holbrook and Madeleine Damasdi, played at Muszi, Corvin building in Somogyi utca. I feel there could be a sequel, if the writer’s imagination starts playing tricks again. And I hope so, because it enriches Budapest’s cultural life.
