Description

Mawby Green and Ed Feilbert from the French hit Magma by Jean de Letraz Farce Characters: 4 male, 3 female Interior Set It played three years in Paris and five in Hollywood before coming to New York, followed by 10 years coast-to-coast and six in London, making it one of the longest runs on record! The plot is all fun. The husband is planning a business trip for philandering purposes; his wife secretly invites this same voluptuous girl to spend the weekend. The husband is trapped. Out of the blue an old friend appears, with hands aflutter, followed by a gendarme who delights in cherchez les femmes. There is also a devilish looking butler, a maid practising to be a cocotte, and some wildly artful dodging, all calculated to keep the audience laughing. "An utterly mad spoof of the French bedroom farce"-The New York World Telegram & Sun "Prolonged laughter."-The New York Times "The best entertainment in London."-London Sunday Times
