Comedy revue with music Jennifer Allen, David Babcock, Winnie Holzman and Don Perman. Music by David Evans and David Babcock. 2 m., 2 f. Cabaret set. Up to the minute social satire is the hallmark of this clever, easily staged revue. A score of sketches and songs parody modern manners and morals at a machine gun pace. It covers everything from the problems of using the telephone in the age of divestiture, to explaining the origin of babies to some obnoxiously precocious children, to arranging a dinner party for a date by which one of the proposed quests will be-- unfortunately-- dead. Songs include a bizarre torch song in the style (if not the spirit) of Piaf, a Steve 'n' Eydie style Vegas number and a new wave rendition of "A Bicycle Built for Two." "Unerring instinct for the heart of the matter.... Downright laughable."-- N.Y. Times . "As frisky and funny and original as anything in town."-- New Yorker. "This is a comedy with a master's degree in literacy. Cheers all round."-- Christian Science Monitor. Terms quoted on application. Music available on rental. Standard rental package includes: Piano/Conductor’s Score (No Chorus Books available.)
