'The Butler Didn't!' at Metropolis March 10-April 17

"The Butler Didn't!" will be performed at the Metropolis Performing Arts Centre, 111 W. Campbell St. in Arlington Heights. The previews will be March 10-12 with tickets of $27-$33. The regular run will be March 13 to April 17, with tickets of $35-$43.

It's all going according to plan for jewel thieves Rick and Ernesto. Rick is the inside man, posing as billionaire Ezekiel Podmore's butler. And Ernesto just arrived with the tools to bust open the safe filled with diamonds. All that stands between the pair and $20 million is a drowsy and intolerant old man. And his trashy trophy wife, money-hungry daughter, feeble-minded doctor, love-struck lawyer, and a horrible, debilitating, imaginary disease. Oh, and there's Ernesto's tendency to fall madly, passionately in love at exactly the wrong time. Maybe sticking to the plan won't be so easy after all.
