What readers are saying

Readers find this play to be a humorous take on the traditional British farce, particularly enjoyable for golf fans. Many appreciate Ken Ludwig's comedic style, although some feel it doesn't quite reach the heights of his earlier works. A few reviews highlight its entertainment value, especially during live performances.

Hilarious romp at the country club True to British farce tradition Sufficiently goofy and entertaining Not as strong as other Ludwig plays

Synopsis

"A tribute from Ken Ludwig (Lend me a tenor, Moon over Buffalo) to the great English farces of the 1930s and 1940s, The fox on the fairway takes audiences on a hilarious romp which begins as Quail Valley Country Club prepares to take on arch rival Crouching Squirrel in the Annual Inter-Club Golf Tournament.

With a sizable wager at stake, the contest plays out amidst three love affairs, a disappearing diamond, objectionable sweaters and an exploding vase.

A charmingly madcap adventure about love, life, and man's eternal love affair with-- golf"--P.
