[Astore Theatre] Imagine the most creative yet convoluted story you can muster. Intertwine the lives of several people (most of who do not exist). Make up an ailment of some sort for each – consider their families, their professions. Add to those details secret bits of juicy information and a slightly goofy tenant entering stage right at precisely the most inopportune time. Now, imagine being put on the spot to tell that tale over and over again, creating as you go, because all of the details, save a handful of actual tales already told are, at present, in question by local authorities who have just arrived in your living room. Sound like a crazy bit of everyday lunacy? Thats just what the audience is in store for when the Astor Theatre produces the fast paced British comedy Cash on Delivery April 14 to 17, 2016.

The play tells the story of a con artist who has duped the welfare authorities for years by claiming every type of benefit for the innumerable people he claims live at his address. He is sent scrambling when welfare investigators show up and he is forced to prove all of his boarders are in fact real. A hilarious comedy full of mistaken identities, slamming doors, and a con that spirals out of control.
