There is Lot­to fever in the air; $20 mil­lion in Trinidad! $600 mil­lion in the Unit­ed States. We all go a lit­tle crazy dream­ing about the great wind­fall land­ing square­ly in our laps. But, what hap­pens if you heard that your spouse won the $20 mil­lion dol­lar lot­to but did not tell you? Would you be­lieve the ru­mour? Would you ask him or her? Or would you hire your own pri­vate in­ves­ti­ga­tor to find out!

Well, that is ex­act­ly what hap­pens as RR/RS Pro­duc­tions pre­mieres its lat­est award-win­ning play, Lot­to Mad­ness,at the Cen­tral Bank Au­di­to­ri­um, Port-of-Spain, on the long hol­i­day week­end span­ning May 30 � June 2.

Lot­to Mad­ness is an award-win­ning play that is writ­ten by Richard Ra­goo­bars­ingh who of course is the award-win­ning play­wright for his plays Mary Could Dance and One Night Stand. In fact to date, Mary Could Dance is the most award­ed play in the his­to­ry of T&T.

From the ac­claimed the­atre pro­duc­ers that re­cent­ly brought you Bailout, Eat ah Food, Mary Could Dance, Love Thy Neigh­bour and De Biggest Mac­co, now comes the lat­est block­buster and ri­otous com­e­dy for the long week­end that will have au­di­ences guess­ing as to who ac­tu­al­ly won the $20 mil­lion dol­lar lot­to as we fol­low a trail of de­cep­tion, sex, lies and mon­ey to hi­lar­i­ous con­clu­sion.

Lot­to Mad­ness takes a very point­ed look at how hu­man be­ings ma­neu­ver to achieve their agen­das, whether they be busi­ness­men, politi­cians or an over­ly am­bi­tious hus­band. The cor­rupt­ing pow­er of greed, from high places to the re­la­tion­ship be­tween hus­band and wife, Lot­to Mad­ness takes an in­sight­ful comedic look at what hap­pens as trust breaks down be­cause of mon­ey, greed and sex.

What peo­ple will do for mon­ey, from bribery to de­cep­tion to sex­u­al favours. A med­dling sis­ter, a neu­rot­ic wife, a mac­co­cious maid, a sex­u­al­ly charged hus­band and a strange pri­vate de­tec­tive on the trail of in­crim­i­nat­ing e-mails, all get in­volved in a melee that has un­ex­pect­ed re­sults to hi­lar­i­ous pro­por­tions.

A re­lease from the pro­duc­ers said Lot­to Mad­ness will fea­ture a stel­lar cast that in­cludes De­bra Bou­caud Ma­son, as the bac­cha­nal maid, Richard Ra­goo­bars­ingh, Car­olyn Tay­lor, Leslie Ann Lavine and Glenn Davis.

Lot­to Mad­ness is di­rect­ed by Ra­goo­bars­ingh and De­bra Bou­caud Ma­son, and promis­es to be an­oth­er hit play of 2013 from the RR/RS Pro­duc­tion team.
