One of Broadway's brightest comedy hits, this wildly funny spoof of avant-garde drama makes high comedy of the nagging indignities which flesh is heir to. This bizarre and hilarious example of theatre of the absurd is a fun look at a love triangle like you've never seen. When the play begins there is Harry Berlin who has sunk low. He has no future except to jump from a bridge. Enter Milt Manville, a picture of prosperity who is all sympathy. But LUV has ample place in its bosom for more than one miserable fellow. Milt is also full of frustration, for his wife won't release him and let him marry the girl he loves. Milt's wife, Ellen appears and it is clear that she, too, is torn by anguish. A triangle matched in misery. And then Milt has had an inspiration. Why not bring Ellen and Harry together and thus win the freedom to marry the other girl? And then there is this sandbox on stage? Truly a bizarre and fun piece reminiscent of Ionesco's work.
