Neil Simon Full Length, Comedy 2m, 3f Int. Neil Simon at his most humane, compassionate best. It's a humorous confection divided into four parts: Visitor from New York , Visitor from Philadelphia , Visitors from London and Visitors from Chicago.
In Visitor from New York, Hannah, a magazine writer is joined by her ex-husband, the question being with whom should their daughter spend the next six months? The banter flies fast and furious but Hannah's well-wrought artifice crumbles as her fears take hold. The Visitor from Philadelphia is a wife who arrives at the suite, catching her husband "en flagrante delicto" with a drunken hooker.
Visitors from London brings a British star as Academy Award nominee. Diana returns from the ceremony empty-handed to husband Sidney whose homosexuality will be no comfort tonight...
The Visitors from Chicago are two couples ending a disastrous vacation they should not have shared.
"Mr. Simon is writing at his ebullient best...his language has the grace of conversation we wish our friends could muster...makes us laugh so effortlessly."-The New York Times "The middle aged visitors had last night's middle aged audience laughing heartily."-New York Daily News FEE: $125 per performance.
