CALENDAR This weekend is your last chance to catch Cottage Theatre’s latest production, A Flea in Her Ear, a new version of Georges Feydeau’s classic French farce in which a wife, suspecting her husband of stepping out, sets a trap by sending him an anonymous love letter off ering a shady tryst. Of course, all manner of hilarity ensues including the classic staples of farce, i.e. mistaken identity, miscommunication, sexual innuendo and general tomfoolery.
