Jeeves Takes a Bow

Adapted by Margaret Raether | From the stories of PG Wodehouse

Directed by Scott Nolte

REGIONAL PROFESSIONAL PREMIERE

Bertie’s back! And this time his talent for trouble trails him to the Big Apple. When childhood chum Binkey Binkersteth knocks, one knacky notion leads to masterful mayhem and soon the notorious Knuckles McCann is fitting Bertie for a Chicago overcoat. Fortunately, the unflappable Jeeves is close at hand with a stiff cuppa joe and a penchant for putting things right!
