Out of the Frying Pan Hammond High

Written by Francis Swann

Licensed by Dramatists Play Service

Our production of Out of the Frying Pan invites the audience into a rollicking romp through the lives of six New York city actors living together, desperate to get the attention of a Broadway producer who lives one floor below. This fantastical farce is full of mistaken identities, misunderstandings, and deception, but at its core are the relationships between six friends just trying to get by. Fun for theatre lovers, it is set in the 1940s, a period where the New York theatre scene was becoming bigger than ever. Out of the Frying Pan is a hilarious escape from present day perils, sure to leave an audience in stitches.
