This renowned comedy begins with a group of the boys assembled for cards in the apartment of a divorced fellow, and if the mess is any indication, it's no wonder that his wife left him. Late to arrive is another fellow who, they learn, has just been separated from his wife. Since he is very meticulous and tense, they fear he might commit suicide, and so go about locking all the windows. When he arrives, he is scarcely allowed to go to the bathroom alone. As life would have it, the slob bachelor and the meticulous fellow decide to bunk together with hilarious results. The patterns of their own disastrous marriages begin to reappear in this arrangement; and so this too must end.

What the Critics Said:


Neil Simon's skill is not only great but constantly growing. There is scarcely a moment that is not hilarious. (N.Y. Times)


A socko comedy success. (N.Y. Journal American)


Fresh, richly hilarious and remarkably original. Wildly, irresistibly, incredibly and continuously funny. (N.Y. Daily News)
