Gateway Presents-Charley's Aunt

PLEASE NOTE: All online ticket sales end 24 hours prior to each performance. Please call Gateway to reserve tickets after that point.

Jack is in love with Kitty and Charley is in love with Amy. When Charley receives a telegram from his aunt, a wealthy widow from Brazil whom he has never met, stating that she will be arriving for lunch, Jack and Charley immediately arrange a luncheon for their young ladies with Charley's aunt as chaperone. But, Charley receives another telegram stating his aunt is delayed and will not be arriving for a few days. Disappointed but not wanting to cancel the lunch date, Jack and Charley talk their friend Babbs, who has taken on his first acting role as an elderly lady, into posing as "Charley's Aunt"....just for the luncheon. However, Jack's father shows up as well as Mr. Spettigue, Amy's uncle and Kitty's guardian; and, the gentlemen are both introduced to "Charley's Aunt". Naturally, comic confusion results when the real aunt shows up. This turn-of-the-century British farce is full of fun, impersonations and a bit of mayhem.

Jackie Hemeon will be directing, with Jeanne Dupuis as producer. The cast includes Charles Allan, Sydney Campbell, Cole Carron, Jim Douglas, James Piehl, Rom Portwood, Joseph Sawyer, Joan Stewart and Sierra Trudel. Presented by permission through special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
