Has anyone seen this? I'm debating on going to see it January 17th at Marina Civic Center in Panama City. I'm probably going to go, but I haven't heard anything about it. Based on reviews or recommendations I see here, I'll decide if I splurge and sit up front or spend the least and sit in back!
Thanks!

Is this the same Dirty Rotten Scoundrels as that hilarious movie w/ Michael Caine & Steve Martin???
"Ruuuu-precht... do I need to get The Glove??" SNAP!

One of my favorite movies.
Until it reaches the surprise at the end, you've been so busy with Steve Martin and Michael Caine that you don't realize how great a job Glen Headley has done playing the "straight man" to them.

One and the same. This is the touring production of the smash hit Broadway Musical based on the 1988 Movie. I just had time to read the reviews and it seems like it will be good. I've never seen the movie....

I'm hoping you didn't give anything away just now, as I don't know how it ends, however, just by reading the synopsis, I know how I would end it. Still the best part will be the journey to get there! No harm, no foul.
Has anyone seen it on Broadway? Mango, BB, anyone....?

Some of my kids saw it in New York and LOVED it. I've heard some of the music, and it's freakin' hilarious.

Broadway.com (http://www.broadway.com/gen/Show.aspx?si=41337) usually has interesting information. This site (http://www.thebroadwaymusicals.com/d/dirtyrottenscoundrels.htm)has the song lyrics--I had to play "Nothing is too Wonderful to be True" for a kid and nearly wet my pants on the last verse the first time I played/heard it.

Haven't seen it, but would love to go. Of course I wasn't invited. :roll:

If there is anything remotely objectionable there will be plenty of good seats after intermission. Heck in my experience with the lovely folks in PC there are usually good seats available within 10 minutes of the entertainment starting.

I LOVE this movie, and I am probably going to end up getting tickets (or rather, A ticket) to see this on stage. I've been excited about it since I first saw the ad on TV a couple months ago.

OMG!:yikes:
I am so glad you clarified that. You skeert me for a moment there. I haven't seen the movie yet. Must rent it this weekend so I don't go into the show cold.
I didn't get my tickets yet. PotatoVixen/SWGB? Whatdya say? Anyone else? I wasn't aware public functions required invitations. Guess that would be the damn yankee rudeness in me rearing its ugly head again.
Not like we have to sit together for a show though. Isn't that how we saw the last play?:funn:
Lets do lunch, we'll talk!

OK you guys, you have spawned an idea.....
Of course getting seats together might not be easy or necessary, but we could all meet before the show, mmmm, lets say at the Bar upstairs at the Marina Civic Center, and then TGIFridays afterwards?
Thursday January 17th, Marina Civic Center, 7:30. Takers?:wave:
