Now in its 73rd season, Albany Civic Theater presents Bullshot Crummond opening on Friday, June 14.
A comedy in two acts, this parody of low-budget 30s detective movies typifies British heroism at its dumbest.
Teutonic villain Otto Von Brunno and his evil mistress Lenya crash their plane in the English countryside and kidnap Professor Fenton, who has discovered a formula for making synthetic diamonds. Bullshot Crummond is called to the rescue by the professor’s daughter Rosemary.
Bullshot Crummond was written by Ron House, Alan Shearman, Diz White, John Neville Andrews and Derek Cunningham. Directed by Erik A Esrael.
Show dates are June 14, 15, 16(m), 20, 21, 22, 23(m), 27, 28 and 29. Evening performances start at 7:30 pm. The matinees start at 2:30 pm.
