About the Play:

The play starts at a fishing lodge in rural Georgia which is often
visited by “Froggy” LeSeuer, a British demolition expert who
occasionally runs training sessions at a nearby army base. This time
“Froggy” has brought along a friend, a pathologically shy young man
named Charlie who is overcome with fear at the thought of making
conversation with strangers. So “Froggy,” before departing, tells all
assembled that Charlie is from an exotic foreign country and speaks no
English. Once alone the fun really begins, as Charlie overhears more
than he should—the evil plans of a sinister, two-faced minister and
his redneck associate along with many other damaging revelations made
with the thought that Charlie doesn’t understand a word being said.
That he does hear, fuels the nonstop hilarity of the play and sets up
the wildly funny climax in which things go uproariously awry for the
“bad guys,” and the “good guys” emerge triumphant.
