Leading Ladies

by Ken Ludwig

Directed by Kelly Wynn Woodland

Two down-on-their luck actors, Jack and Leo, learn a nearby wealthy woman is searching for her sister’s children to include in her will. When they discover that long-lost "Max" and "Steve" aren’t nephews but nieces, they must continue their plot, now posing as "Maxine" and "Stephanie" for a chance at the multi-million dollar inheritance.
