Background
You will be auditioning for A Flea in her Ear by Georges Feydeau. The play is a farcical comedy set in Paris at the turn of the 20th century. The play revolves around the suspicious wife, Raymonde, who makes up a plan to catch her husband, Victor, cheating on her. Mistaken identities, outrageous coincidences, and slapstick humor ensue as a series of characters, including a nervous hotel porter and a notorious womanizer who resembles Victor, become entangled in a chaotic web of misunderstandings and misadventures at the Frisky Puss Hotel.
With witty dialogue and frenetic pacing, Feydeau's masterpiece offers a delightful exploration of marital jealousy and the absurdities of human behavior.
