Falcon's Eye Theatre presents A Flea in Her Ear, a new version of Georges Feydau's farce by David Ives. In this hilarious play set in Paris at the turn of the century, a suspicious wife, Raymonde, makes up a plan to catch her husband, Victor, cheating on her. Mistaken identities, outrageous coincidences, and slapstick humor ensue. A series of characters, including a nervous hotel porter and a notorious womanizer who resembles Victor, become entangled in a chaotic web of misunderstandings and misadventures at the Frisky Puss Hotel.
With witty dialogue and frenetic pacing, Feydeau's masterpiece offers a topsy-turvy and raucous evening of entertainment.
“Ives’ adaptation maintains the original’s dazzling plot while communicating Feydeau’s playful use of language to an American audience.” —Backstage.
“…[a] crisp, delightfully ridiculous translation…” —Time Out Chicago.
“…a hilarious evening of classic comedy.” —Chicago Critic.
