"Dirty Rotten Scoundrels": Con Men Compete in Acclaimed Musical Comedy

Despite all the double-dealing in "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels", the audience makes out like bandits. Singing swindlers, a cockeyed competition and high livin' on the French Riviera make for a delightfully dynamite musical comedy from the composer of "The Full Monty". Based on the popular 1988 film starring Steve Martin and Michael Caine, "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" follows two crooks with different approaches to "the art of the con." While the suave Lawrence Jameson charms wealthy women out of thousands, Freddy Benson uses pity to cadge free meals from the tenderhearted. In a battle for territory, the two agree to a contest: The first to wheedle $50,000 out of a beautiful heiress wins and the other must leave town forever.
