The Crowded Kitchen Players at McCoole's Arts & Events Place Present “Too Clever By Half or Diary of a Scoundrel”

Too Clever By Half follows the audacious efforts of Yegor
Gloumov who contrives to rise above his lowborn station by any means possible,
one precarious rung at a time, up the social ladder. In Gloumov's case, that
means the exhausting chore of pandering to the dotty patrons, matrons, and
distant relatives glaring down at him from each succeeding level, and wooing
and winning their frustrated wives and their even more curious daughters, tasks
for which his good looks, charm, and facile tongue have him well-suited.
However, by keeping a detailed record of his true feelings toward the people he
is exploiting along the way, and worse, by allowing that diary to fall into the
hands of his enemies, he foolishly imperils the improbable gains he has so
swiftly achieved in this cleverly entertaining farce.
