A Flea in Her Ear - By Geoerge Feydeau

Considered one of the funniest plays ever written, this classic French farce is a masterpiece of mistaken identities, slamming doors and revolving beds.

To prove her suspicions, she attempts to entrap her husband by sending him a steamy love note pretending to be another woman and invites him to a rendezvous of promised passion in a seedy hotel. The rendezvous turns into a madcap romp of misunderstanding where the soused hotel porter has an uncanny resemblance to confused Victor.
