and Corie Bratter are newlyweds in every sense of the word. He’s
a straight-as-an-arrow lawyer and she’s a free spirit always
looking for the latest kick. Their new apartment is her most
recent find – too expensive with bad plumbing and in need of a
paint job. After a six-day honeymoon, they get a surprise visit
from Corie’s loopy mother and decide to play matchmaker during a
dinner with their neighbor-in-the-attic, Velasco, where everything
that can go wrong, does. Paul just doesn’t understand Corie, as
she sees it. He’s too staid, too boring, and she just wants him
to be a little more spontaneous. Running “barefoot in the park”
would be a start…</span></font></font></font></p>

<font color="#1f1f1f"><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><font size="2">Corie
Bratter, a newlywed, married only six days at the beginning of the
play. She is young, pretty, and full of enthusiasm for the future.
Impulsive and fun-loving, she considers herself a doer, not a
watcher. Her impetuosity is not shared, at first, by her mother or
husband, and they are aghast when she cheers the crazy antics of
Victor, a neighbor. Corie eventually learns to appreciate
dependability and quiet strength.</font></font></font></p>

<font color="#1f1f1f"><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><font size="2">Paul
Bratter, Corie’s husband, a twenty-six-year-old attorney in his
first job. Both his dress and his outlook are very conservative.
Extremely proper and dignified, he always knows the right thing to
say. He is levelheaded and practical, and he keeps his emotions in
check, perhaps too much so. After Corie accuses him of lacking
playfulness, he shows her that he, too, is capable of walking
barefoot in the park.</font></font></font></p>

Banks, Corie’s mother. She is in her late forties. Although she is
still pretty, she has fallen out of step with the fashions. She lives
alone in West Orange, New Jersey. Consciously or unconsciously, she
has adopted a narrow image of herself as someone with a sensitive
stomach, a bad back, and no need for romance. It takes a wild evening
out with Victor for Ethel to rediscover her carefree and spontaneous
self.</font></font></font></p>

<font color="#1f1f1f"><font face="Arial, sans-serif"><font size="2">Victor
Velasco, the Bratters’ upstairs neighbor. Fifty-eight years old, he
is a colorful character. Although capable of looking positively natty
in a double-breasted pinstriped suit, he also wears Japanese kimonos
and berets. He is vain, flamboyant, and without shame when it comes
to letting someone else pick up a tab. Married three times, he is a
terrific flirt. He is also a gourmet cook; Paul refers to him as the
“Hungarian Duncan Hines.” There are signs that Victor is
beginning to slow down. After an exhilarating evening of his own
creation, he suffers a broken toe and an upset stomach.</font></font></font></p>
