Abbey Players Theatre proudly presents its fall show of the 2010-2011 season, Come Blow Your Horn, is Neil Simon's first and arguably best comedies. Set in the early 60's during the era of the Mad Men TV show, it exists as a time capsule of an age long gone, when James Bond's sexual exploitations were revered and "Beach Blanket Bingo" was the movie of the year.
Come Blow your Horn presents the story of Harry Baker, owner of the largest artificial fruit business in the east, and his two sons: Alan, the 30-year-old man about town playboy who works two days a week and chases women the other five, and Buddy, his younger brother who has run away from home. Add their beleaguered mother's efforts to reconcile the situation, Alan's longtime girlfriend Connie, his girlfriend on the side, Peggy, who thinks Alan can make her a star, and the scene is set for a hysterical romp. This three-act comedy shows why Neil Simon is the country's best situational comedy writer.
So turn on your Frank Sinatra records and remember how we could laugh at the silly antics of a father, chasing his wife, chasing her son, chasing his brother, chasing his girl, chasing the other girl round and round the couch and come have a fine time with us at Abbey Players! Come Blow Your Horn!
