    A FLEA IN HER EAR is the greatest of French farces, perhaps the greatest farce ever written. Raymonde Chandebise (Andrea Osborn) suspects that her husband, Victor (David Stokey), a placid and successful insurance executive, is secretly having an affair. To find out, she and her friend Lucienne (Boni Shearer) write him an anonymous love letter suggesting a rendezvous at the shady Hotel Coq d’Or. Thinking the letter was intended for his coworker, the gigolo Tournel (Rommel Sulit), Victor sends Tournel off to make the rendezvous in his place. Lucienne’s jealous Spanish husband (Ben Wolfe), meanwhile, finds the letter, recognizes his wife’s handwriting and takes his pistols to the Hotel Coq d’Or, hoping to catch her in the act. Meanwhile, Victor’s nephew Camille (Aaron Clay) tries to warn everyone about the mix-up, but his ridiculous speech impediment prevents anyone from understanding him.
