“...if you can believe that
a play can be part ROOM SERVICE, part Das Capital and part His Girl
Friday, you've got the premise of the wildly funny AN
AMERICAN COMEDY.
The play is such an accurate
pastiche of the time, that some audiences have taken it for a
genuine comedy written in the thirties.
There's so many doors slammed,
fires put out, trunks shut, typewriters ruined, disrobings, and
darts thrown that at times you think you've wandered into a lost
Marx Brothers comedy....”
