Two con men, a beautiful woman, and the elite of the French Riviera collide in this sexy and irreverent farce.
Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, based on the popular 1988 MGM film, takes us to the French Riviera for high jinks and hilarity. Sophisticated, suave with a good dash of mischief, this hysterical comedy features a delightfully jazzy score by David Yazbek (The Full Monty) and was nominated for a staggering eleven Tony Awards.
Lawrence Jameson makes his lavish living by talking rich ladies out of their money. Freddy Benson more humbly swindles women by waking their compassion with fabricated stories about his grandmother’s failing health. After meeting on a train, they attempt to work together, only to find that this small French town isn’t big enough for the two of them. They agree on a settlement: the first one to extract $50,000 from a young female target, heiress, Christine Colgate, wins, and the other must leave town. A hilarious battle of cons ensues that will keep audiences laughing, humming and guessing to the end!

Seen: Figure Studies by Student Artists (Reception)
2025-09-05 17:00 - 19:00 | MAC Gallery, 1300 Fifth St, Wenatchee, WA, 98801, United States
Seen is an exhibition of figure drawings created by WVC students engaging in the timeless practice of drawing from life. These works reflect hours of focused observation, refinement, and discovery. Each piece is both a study and a gesture of witness—offering not only an image of the human body, but a record of the artist’s gaze, presence, and interpretation.
Drawing from live figure models is a lasting foundational practice for artists, both professionally and academically. It trains the eye to see with precision and the hand to respond with sensitivity. Working from life challenges artists to observe subtle shifts in anatomy, proportion, gesture, and light. Beyond technique, figure drawing cultivates patience, presence, and understanding, inviting artists to engage with the body not as object, but as living form.
In both historical and contemporary contexts, figure drawing is an essential discipline for building visual literacy, strengthening artistic technique, and nurturing expressive potential. Figure Drawing is a staple in the WVC Art Department, and a program we are proud to offer.
The Reception is September 5th, but the exhibit will be on display from August 1st–September 26th.
