Benefitting the American Heart Association
Boeing, Boeing is a bedroom farce originally written in French by Marc Camoletti
in 1961 and quickly adapted onto the English-speaking stage. Translated by Beverley
Cross, the Guinness Book of World Records named it the most performed French
comedy ever. Boeing, Boeing takes off with the outrageous lifestyle of an American expatriot named Bernhard living in Paris. He is the ultimate ladies man dating three airline
stewardesses in the early 1960's at the peak of the Golden Age of air travel. His affairs
seem to be intermingling well until the Boeing company develops faster airplanes that
lead to a romantic nightmare of crossed schedules, near misses in the bedroom and
hilarious consequences.
During the six week run of performances we will host our Affairs of the Heart
fundraising drive. Coronado Playhouse, the Communitys Theatre, is raising money and
awareness for the San Diego division of the American Heart Association. Come to any
performance and help in the mission to fight cardiovascular disease and stroke. Make a
donation of any amount at our interactive display and create a personalized heart in your
honor or the honor of a loved one. Your thoughtful token will be shown in a string of
hearts alongside others who have given to the cause. Also, join us in support of the
American Heart Association's annual National Walking Day April 1st. During the lunch
hour that day 11:00 a.m.- 2:00 p.m.; lace up your sneakers and take a walk to Horton
Square Downtown, 225 Broadway 92101 for free health screenings, food and giveaways:
