I've never seen this play and only read the script because Darrell foisted it on me. It's hard to believe he's going to do it with his high school kids because there's a lot of swearing and it's a little dated. Reading it, I thought it was ridiculous, but I only laughed out loud once. I'm pretty sure if I saw it, though, I'd think it was funny. ( )

One of my personal favorite plays in our collection. Very funny, farcical slice-of-life comedy. ( )

I don't even know why I have this; I'm a fan neither of farce nor of Neil Simon. it played 535 performances. I'll never understand Broadway audiences. ( )

This play was a great distraction. I was drawn by the humor which made it fun to read. Four couples gather for a party and mayhem ensues. I would love it see it on stage if it comes to my area. If you see it advertised, get tickets. I am sure it will entertain you. ( )

Simon rehashes old themes, with rich folks who are morally corrupt and silly to boot. Some interesting gags, but nothing new. The characters are impossible to like, and feeling sympathy for anyone but the police is impossible. There really just isn't much of a story here; it's more vaudeville than anything else, and the twist ending is definitely a duex ex machina that isn't even well done. It lacks subtlety, but more than that, it lacks comedy. Simon has done many better works, and this won't go down as one of his greats. ( )
