INDY'S WEEKLY ALTERNATIVE NEWSPAPER HIGHLIGHTING ARTS, ENTERTAINMENT AND SOCIAL JUSTICE

Cons on stage

The national tour of the Broadway hit musical Dirty Rotten Scoundrels will be at Clowes Hall on the Butler University campus Dec. 11-16 as part of the Broadway Across America-Indianapolis series.

The show is based on the 1988 movie: Two con men try teaming up, but when it doesn’t work out, they make a bet with each other. Whoever can swindle $50,000 from a young heiress first wins, and the loser must leave town. But things don’t go as smoothly as either man hopes.

Tickets are $22-$65 through Ticketmaster, or the Clowes or Murat box offices.
