"Charley’s Aunt", written by Brandon Thomas, is a farce which will move you to tears of laughter. Two young college gentlemen invite their sweethearts to meet Charley’s Aunt. But, alas, she sends word that she cannot come. They solve their problem by forcing their college buddy into a black dress and a wig. Lord Babberly disguised as Charley’s Aunt is then introduced to the young ladies, to Jack’s father, Sir Francis, and to Stephen Spettigue, the girls’ guardian. Each for their own reasons attempts to win the favor of the "old frump". The young college buddies run into even more problems when Charley’s "real aunt" arrives on the scene.
