I agree with The Man Who Came to Dinner. Also loved Run For Your Wife and its sequel, Caught it the Net, although those involves more physical comedy. And you can never go wrong with The Importance of Being Ernest.

A trilogy of sorts, in this order:

Hamlet (Shakespeare)
The Birthday Party (Pinter)
Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead (Stoppard)

The last one is one of my all-time favorites (many of the others have already shown up on this thread), but it's better if you've already read (or seen) the first two.
