THE SHOW

Paris, 1960—Bernard, a successful architect living abroad, thinks he can easily juggle his three flight attendant fiancées. It’s all a question of timing and a little help from his trusted housekeeper, who reluctantly plays romantic air traffic controller.  When a new jet engine shortens international travel times, all three scheduled “layovers” collide—and Bernard’s cleverly managed flights of fancy are in for a rougher ride. A rollicking, jet-propelled comedy, in its Arkansas premiere.

“Deliciously, deliriously innocent... Soars right out of its time zone and into some unpolluted stratosphere of classic physical comedy”
— THE NEW YORK TIMES

THE REVIEWS ARE IN

"A non-stop flurry of frenetic physical and verbal comedy" make Boeing-Boeing — as it is staged by TheatreSquared in Fayetteville, Ark. — one deliriously, hilariously fun show."

- James D. Watts, Jr., Tulsa World - Click to read full review

"Boeing-Boeing is outta sight! TheatreSquared’s sixth season takes off with a jet-packed tour-de-farce that soars to ridiculous heights. With this purely high-altitude cast, chances are good you’ll be struggling to catch your breath."

- Tobias Wray, The Fayetteville Flyer - Click to read full review

"TheatreSquared and a brilliant cast make this farce fresh and funny… and the Fayetteville theater company has kept the ambiance of the swingin’ ’60s with great period costuming, lighting and sound."

- Becca Bacon Martin, What's Up! - Click to read full review

"TheatreSquared's Boeing-Boeing is a fabulous, funny free-fall. The actors’ impeccable comedic timing and heavy doses each of witty wordplay and slapstick physical humor make this two-hour theatrical treat fly by... Take a date. Take two. Maybe three … just not on the same night!"
