Ken and Chris have found their host Charley, a prominent American Government city official, in his bedroom, too dazed to speak, with a bullet wound in his ear lobe! Lenny and Claire arrive, themselves injured in a car crash, and are soon joined by Ernie and Cookie, Glenn and Cassie, each with their own problems.
A second, accidental, gunshot leaves Ken temporarily deaf, the police arrive and Len has to pretend he is Charley, concocting a touching and fantastic explanation only believable thanks to the comedy genius of the best New York playwright.
RUNNING TIME: approx. 2 1/2 hours including one interval.
