The Fox on the Fairway (2012)

The Fox on the Fairway, one of two Southern Arena Theatre (SAT) productions in the summer of 2012, was a high-energy farce in which two rival country clubs competed in a golf championship with a “winner take all” prize. A tribute to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, The Fox on the Fairway took SAT audiences on a hilarious romp, which began as Quail Valley Country Club prepared to take on archrival Crouching Squirrel in the Annual Inter-Club Golf Tournament.

With a sizable wager at stake, the contest played out amidst three love affairs, a disappearing diamond, objectionable sweaters and an exploding vase. Ken Ludwig, the author of Lend Me a Tenorand Shakespeare in Hollywood, brought another madcap adventure to the stage with this adventure about love, life and man’s eternal obsession with golf.
