See Penelope squirm. See spies escape. See the Vicar find his pants!

This is the lesson taught at the Peninsula Players' production of Philip King's See How They Run, set end its scheduled run Aug. 20 in Wisconsin. Peninsula veteran Karen Sheridan, who directed last summer's It Runs in the Family and the previous year's The Fantasticks, directed the comedy.

See How They Run is a chaotic farce of mistaken identities reaching uncontrollable measures at the height of the Cold War. The cast of this madcap piece, written over half a century ago, includes McKinley Carter, Megan Cavanagh, Joe Foust, Steve Hinger, Amy McKenzie, Tom Monsion, Bradley Mott, Tom Mula, and Jonathan Weir.
