Charley's Aunt 
A farce by Brandon Thomas
At a boy's college in the late 1800's, Charley and Jack, desperate to impress their lady friends and hoodwink their supercilious old guardian, browbeat their classmate, Lord Fancourt Babberly, into impersonating a rich widowed aunt from Brazil so that the girls will have a proper chaperone. But all does not go as planned. Jack is surprised by a visit from his father, and the real aunt from Brazil shows up.
