Charley’s Aunt
Greenman Theatre

232 S. York Elmhurst
The beloved play centers on Lord Fancourt Babberley, an Oxford undergraduate whose university friends, Jack and Charley, persuade him to pose as Charley’s wealthy widowed aunt and act as chaperone when they invite their intendeds over for a romantic afternoon. Plot complications include the late arrival of the real aunt and the attempts of two elderly “gentleman callers” to woo the bogus aunt. Eventually, the various (and hilarious) mistakes are set right.
