Theater Charlotte is presenting “The Foreigner” from Jan. 25 – Feb. 10. The play revolves around a couple of Englishmen, Charlie Baker and Staff Sgt. Froggy LeSueur visiting a fishing lodge in Georgia. This comedy is full of intrigue as Charlie wants to just be left alone, so they feign that he does not know a word of English. He has to keep up the ruse as he hears the secrets and gossip of the local townsfolk in this classic comedy by Larry Shue.
“The Foreigner” was the inspiration for a winter wardrobe of English-inspired looks for the holiday season. British style is trademarked with slim cuts, skinny pants and checked patterns. Military-inspired details are a classic winter staple of epaulets, double breasted jackets, chest pockets and heavy wools.
