A co-production of OTC and Scripps Ranch Theatre, "Lucky Stiff" tells the story of Harry, an English shoe salesman who receives the unexpected news that he has inherited a fortune from his late Uncle Anthony, on the condition that he takes his uncle’s dead body on a special trip to Monte Carlo. If Harry refuses to fulfill all of his uncle's last wishes exactly, the inheritance will go to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn instead. It doesn’t help matters that Rita, Tony's lover with whom he embezzled $6 million behind her husband's back, and her brother Vinnie, who she blamed for the crime, have their own schemes to get at the money. Based on the novel "The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo" by Michael Butterworth, "Lucky Stiff" is a life-affirming comedy served up with a dash of danger featuring romance, disguises, farcical chases, and an omnipresent corpse. Friday performances begin at 8 p.m., Saturday performances are at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m., and Sunday performances begin at 2 p.m. Oceanside Theatre Company on Facebook / Instagram
