April 4-5, 2009
Our American Cousin
by Tom Taylor

7:30 pm, Sat.
2 pm-Sun.

The comedy concerns a rather bumptious Yankee, Asa Trenchard, who arrives in England, where he rescues his virtually impoverished English relatives from the treacherous financial machinations of a supposed family counselor and also marries the young girl whom he himself had inadvertently deprived of an inheritance. The play became one of the biggest comedy hits of its era.
