Healdsburg Weekend Planner August 19-21 Has It All

Friday, Saturday and Sunday

Rumors is Neil Simon at his best. Four couples gather to celebrate a wedding anniversary of their best friend, Charley the Deputy Mayor of New York, at his apartment. Ken and Chris are the first couple to arrive and they find Charley upstairs bleeding. An attempted suicide – or is it? Ken, his lawyer, decides they must get “the story” straight before the other guests arrive. A missing wife, missing cook, a damaged car, whiplash, a recurring back spasm, and rumors galore add to the comic mayhem. As the confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity. If you enjoy a good laugh, this show is for you.
