About Flamingo Court:

Farr and Gillette take on multiple roles in a three-act comedy featuring the loopy and endearing residents of Flamingo Court, a South Florida apartment complex. Each floor is another story with a lesson to learn. Sex after sixty's no sin. Where there's a will, there's a way (for your kids to fight over the inheritance). And love, at any age, can be a new and beautiful thing.

The critics are raving about Flamingo Court with John Simon of Bloomberg calling the show "a wall-to-wall hoot for old and young alike. The audience laughed up a Florida-worthy hurricane! Wonderful performances by the spirited Jamie Farr and the adorable Anita Gillette." UPI calls Flamingo Court "without question, the funniest show in town. Laughs galore," while The Associated Press says the show has "License to kill with laughter. You'll be in heaven with this trio of vignettes written by Luigi Creatore." The New York Times praised "Flamingo Court knows its prime audience -- the AARP crowd -- and plays to it skillfully."

Flamingo Court plays at New World Stages, Stage #2 (340 West 50th Street), Monday and Wednesday through Saturday at 8:00PM with matinees Wednesday and Saturday at 2:00PM and Sunday at 3:00PM. Tickets are $57 - $72. Call www.Telecharge.com or call 212-239-6200.
