Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is the November show for Axminster Musical Theatre and to kick it off, the group is holding an introduction evening for people to go along to hear all about this sexy and irreverent farce featuring two conmen, a beautiful woman and the elite of the French Riviera.

This will be followed by a sing-through evening on Monday, June 10, and open auditions on Monday, June 17.
