13 Rue De L'amour (play In Three Acts) [Paperback]

Full Length, Farce/ 5 m, 3 f, extras / 2 ints. Here is the hilarious frolic that launched Feydeau in Paris as the Neil Simon of his day. Take one philandering husband; add his virtuous wife set on revenge, and a doctor determined to be her instrument of revenge; mix well with the husband's friend who is eager to trap his spouse in flagrante delicto and a young nephew with a cocotte to round out his education; toss them together at 13 Rue de L'Amour where a love starved German countess is the concierge; season with a befuddled police inspector and a perky French maid. The best laid plans for vice and sin go wildly and wonderfully astray. -Seattle Times Very stuff of comedy whirled around with happy dexterity. -NY Post Classic farce... thoroughly worth seeing. -NY Times Indecently funny. -Time ROYALTY FEE: $75 per performance.
