Play Summary:
Hilarious situations, clever dialogue, intriguing romance and surprise twists make this breezy comedy a delight.
A soap opera author has written a screenplay about a terminally ill man who hires a hitman to kill him and then
finds out he was misdiagnosed. His agent and best friend thinks the plot is not feasible so the author contacts
a gangster and arranges for an incognito hitman to join them at a dinner party to prove his point.
Circumstances place a real hitman among the guests and the action accelerates as they try to find out who it is
before the deadline. Is the whole scheme really a con game? And who cons the con man? And who is conning
them all?
