Ann Jellicoe

Published by Samuel French Inc

3 Male 1 Female

The New York production was directed by Mike Nichols and ran for two years. There is little wonder at that, since this is a riotous comedy of zany dramatic drive, showing us three young fellows in relation to one girl in various attitudes of sex

What happened was, or rather the reason she landed here is that she got lost on her way to the YWCA. Of the youths, there's Tom, who paints the walls of the room various colors and hangs chairs on them just so they won't clutter up the floor; there's Colin, who is nervously eager to learn about sex second hand from his friends; and there's Tolen, who has only to see a girl go by, and out the window he hops, trailing after, only to return some minutes later with a satisfied grin

The poor girl is severely tested by these three, and so distracted that she begins imagining all sorts of involvements with each of them

"One of the funniest evenings in town" ~ N.Y. Times
