One Slight Hitch at Raven Playhouse

"A marriage farce by Lewis Black" sounds like a throwaway gag, like "a Jacobean tragedy from Larry David" or a "a light opera composed by Louie C.K." But it's real and, of course, utterly brilliant. Known for his no-holds-barred rants on The Daily Show, Black brings his furiously funny humor to the stage in One Slight Hitch. In this sharply written comedy, Doc and Delia Coleman are throwing eldest daughter Courtney the lavish wedding they never had. Everything promises to be perfect until the doorbell rings and the titular "hitch" wreaks glorious havoc on all their plans. Rife with the political commentary and offbeat comedy familiar to Black's fans, One Slight Hitch is a major treat for comedy-lovers of all stripes. Lewis Hauser directs an exciting new production for the Vagabond Players.
