The Love Hungry Farmer

In the W. Scott McLucas Studio Theatre

by John B. Keane
directed by Charlotte Moore
starring Des Keogh

August 5 – September 28, 2003

Following a sold-out run earlier this year, Des Keogh returns as John Bosco McLane, a lonely country farmer who, despite his best efforts, is still a virgin. McLane’s need for female companionship prompts his search for a suitable wife in this charming comedy.

“an uproarious comedy; you won’t find a more incisive or hilarious demarcation of love and marriage anywhere else… The Love Hungry Farmer, like life itself, is a volatile mixture of tragedy and comedy, and something that must be experienced for the pleasures it has to offer.” -Talkin’ Broadway

“LEAVES YOU BREATHLESS WITH LAUGHTER” – Associated Press

“BRUISINGLY HILARIOUS” – The New York Times
