Rumors is a farce which is a light dramatic composition marked by broadly satirical comedy with an improbable plot. Comedy is the key word.  The play was first performed on Broadway in 1989. The play is about a group of friends who go to Myra & Charley Brock's house to celebrate Myra & Charley's 10th wedding anniversary. However, Myra doesn't show up, and Charley has been shot. Rumors begin to float around as to what has happened.
