Fox on the Fairway: “A Fox on the<br />

eternal love affair with … golf.” Running<br />

from Wednesday, January 9<br />

through Sunday, February 3, the<br />

show takes audiences on a hilarious<br />

romp, which “pulls the rug out from<br />

underneath the stuffy denizens of a<br />

private country club.” A Fox on the<br />

Fairway” is a tribute from Ken Ludwig<br />

to the great English farces of the<br />

1930s and 1940s filled with mistaken<br />

identities, slamming doors, and over<br />

the top romantic shenanigans. A Fox<br />

on the Fairway will be shown at the<br />

Meadow Brook Theatre, Michigan’s<br />

largest producing theater located on<br />

the campus of Oakland University. To<br />
