Fox on the Fairway at Actors' Playhouse

We don't have the Coconut Grove Playhouse, but we're lucky enough to be a hop, skip and jump to Coral Gables, where we can enjoy the Actors' Playhouse.

Playing now through June 2 is "The Fox on the Fairway," a screwball adventure about love, life, and man's eternal love affair with golf. Written by Ken Ludwig ("Lend Me a Tenor," "Moon Over Buffalo"), the author hits a hole-in-one with his tribute to the great English farces of the 30's and 40's.

Two rival country clubs, Quail Valley and Crouching Squirrel, prepare for their annual grudge match. A massive private wager is made between the two CEOs just before the best player switches teams. Filled with mistaken romance, dreadful attire, emotional mulligans and silly shenanigans, "The Fox On The Fairway" is a "tour-de-course" of rapid-fire chip shots and frenzied miscommunications.


Performances at Actors' Playhouse are Wednesdays through Saturdays at 8 pm., Sundays at 2 pm with a special weekday matinee scheduled for May 15 at 2 pm. Ticket prices range from $15 to $48.
