'Dirty Rotten Scoundrels' hits Paducah's Carson Center for two shows

PADUCAH, Ky. — This town ain't big enough for the both of them.

Two conmen meet on a train bound for a small French Riviera town and soon realize they can't both be successful scam artists in the small town. The stakes are laid: Whoever can scam $50,000 out of a beautiful heiress gets to stay and the other hits the road.

One suave, one sleazy, who will win the right to stay?

"Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" brings a bet, a scam and lots of laughs to Paducah's Carson Center.

The national tour of the scamming, scheming, double-crossing hit Broadway musical "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" will give two performances at the Carson Center. Showtime is 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

Tickets range from $30 to $50 and are available by calling the Carson Center box office at 270-450-4444) or online at www.thecarsoncenter.org.
