That was one of my first Broadway plays. Jack Weston, Tammy Grimes, George Grizzard & Barbara Barrie.

It was 4 one act plays by Neil Simon, taking place in the same room in a Southern California hotel.

1. A conversation between a divorced couple, mostly concerning raising their teenage daughter. She's a sophisticated New Yorker and he has become a new-age Californian.

2. A farce about a guy who wakes up the morning after a bachelor party and is surprised to find a drunk, passed out woman in his bed just as his wife comes in the room. Lots of physical farce as he tried to hide the woman.

3. More verbal banter between a Hollywood celeb going to the Oscars with her gay husband.

4. Farce about two couples on vacation together getting into an argument over a tennis doubles match.
