Overview

In this delightful off-Broadway hit based on the Amphitryon myth, Jupiter comes to Earth in human form to woo beautiful Alcemene, wife of Amphitryon. Appearing to her in the body of her absent husband, he quickly wins her love. Things go swimmingly until the real Amphitryon shows up. The ensemble consists of Tom, Dick, Horace and the delightfully dizzy Dolores (who is only in the show because her husband, Murray the Furrier, is backing the show financially.)
