Tryst

Just when you think it's a non-musical version of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels(off broadway, of course), the plot changes - it's a love story. But wait - is it? Can George Love (Max Caulfield) complete his caper? Is Adelaide Pinchin (Amelia Campbell) really as naive and innocent as she seems? A pinch of phychological drama always makes the evening electrifying.

The drama set in 1910 in London keeps you guessing right unitl the very end. (I won't give it away, don't worry).

Both Max and Amelia ruled the stage together and held your attention the whole way thru this tale. Adelaide's transformation in Act II is both ying and yang. It makes her stronger - able to stand on her own - stand up to George - but what does it ultimately get her?

Swing on over to the Promenade Theater on 76th and Broadway. Even if it's just for a chance to see Max (you might remember him better as Miles Colby from Dynasty) with his shirt off - it's worth it!
