Taken fr TDF's site:

Written by Algonquin Round Table wit Dorothy Parker and Arnaud d’Usseau and directed by OBIE Award-winning director Dan Wackerman (Counsellor-At-Law), this play is a sympathetic look behind the closed doors of New York City’s Hotel Marlow. Following the death of her husband, Lulu Ames moves into the hotel and immediately embarks on a romance with a much younger man. Mildred Tynan, another resident, has walked out on an abusive husband and now finds herself drinking too much in the company of a “helpful” stranger. These women, along with several other colorful characters, cross paths in the corridor of this genteel establishment, where a skeleton is hung in every closet. This Peccadillo Theater Company production was previously presented at Bank Street Theatre in 2003.

EAST 13TH STREET THEATRE, 136 East 13th Street, NYC

“It proves that Parker was the mistress of much more than the acid one-liner...excellent.” – The New Yorker

“Parker’s trademark acerbic wit is evident throughout this well-acted revival by The Peccadillo Theater.” – The Daily News

Going to this on the 25th. Did anyone see it in its previous run? It's such a rare treat to see this play.

Noticed this show when I was checking out the Gold Club the other day. Might see it.
