On the Razzle (1986)

This Tony-award winning playwright gives us an inspired comic romp from the inventive 19th century farce that also gave us THE MATCHMAKER and HELLO, DOLLY. “There may be no script in English funnier than ON THE RAZZLE” – London Observer. “He is one of the hottest and most literate writers of the English language…brilliant theatricality” – Mel Gussow, The New York Times
