San Pedro Gets Dirty and Rotten

June 2, 2010 - PRLog -- The musical Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is based on a popular 1998 film by the same title. It's about two fraudsters, Lawrence Jameson and Freddy Benson, living on the French Riviera. Lawrence is a cultivated and suave gentleman who cons rich ladies out of their money. Freddy on the other hand is a small time American thief who cons women into giving him money by telling made up stories about his sick grandmother. One day they meet in the hotel lobby and try to setup some work together, but soon find out that the small French town they live in isn't big enough to support two scammers. So they setup a challenge, they agree that the first person to successfully steal $50,000 from a young heiress, Christine Colgate will get to stay in town, while the loser has to leave. The battle between them then starts, with many twists and laughs along the way.
