Jacob Trickey, Kelly Riddle, and Jeff Karlin with be acting in the Lewiston Civic Theater production of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels playing Lawrence Jameson, Christine Colgate, and Freddy Benson.

First-time director Kathy Witt said the comedic show is a PG-13 musical with a few innuendos. The set will take the audience to the present-day French Riviera, she said, while costuming is elaborate and fancy, because of the characters’ wealth. An orchestra will perform upbeat music, by the same people who composed the score of “The Full Monty,” a past LCT production.

Tickets can be purchased at lctheatre.org or by calling the LCT Box Office 12-6 p.m. Tuesday through Friday at (208) 746-3401.
