About Dirty Rotten Scoundrels:
Hart House Theatre is thrilled to be able to present another Toronto Premiere of a major Musical. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is a hilarious musical romp based on the hit film starring Michael Caine and Steve Martin. On the French Riviera, two charming and unscrupulous con-artists are pitted against each other in this smart, sexy and side-splitting comedy. Filled with delightful scams, ridiculous plot-twists and plenty of back-stabbing fun, this Tony-Award winning musical will seduce you with an uncompromising wit, an unforgettable score and a smorgasbord of devilishly charming and corrupt characters.
