<DIV><STRONG>About the play:<BR></STRONG>In <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1231867071_15>New York City</SPAN>, four couples gather at a <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1231867071_16>deputy mayor</SPAN>’s townhouse to celebrate his <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1231867071_17>tenth wedding anniversary</SPAN>. The hilarity begins when the first couple discovers that the host has shot himself (only a flesh wound) and his wife is missing. The cover up grows progressively more difficult to sustain as each pair of guests arrive, causing the situation to get more crazed. <SPAN class=yshortcuts id=lw_1231867071_18>Neil Simon</SPAN> will not disappoint you as laughs come in so fast you won’t be able to catch your breath.</DIV>
