An inspired comic romp, equal in inventive hilarity to the author's classic
comedy The Nerd, The Foreigner, directed by Mike Pilgreen, is set in a
fishing lodge in rural Georgia, run by Betty (Roxie Piscitello). The lodge is often visited by "Froggy" LeSeuer (Drew
Pawley), a British demolition expert who occasionally runs training sessions
at a nearby army base. This time "Froggy" has brought along a friend, a
pathologically shy young man named Charlie (Jean-Luc McMurtry) who is
overcome with fear at the thought of making conversation with strangers. So
"Froggy," before departing, tells all assembled that Charlie is from an
exotic foreign country and speaks no English. Once alone the fun really
begins, as Charlie overhears more than he should—the evil plans of a
sinister, two-faced minister (Patrick Carroll) and his redneck associate; the fact that the
minister's pretty fiancée (Marissa Nichols) is pregnant; and many other damaging revelations
made with the thought that Charlie doesn't understand a word being said.
That he does fuels the nonstop hilarity of the play and sets up the wildly
funny climax in which things go uproariously awry for the "bad guys," and
the "good guys" emerge triumphant.
