This delightfully funny Cy Coleman musical is about a would be ménage-a-quatre -- two couples who want to plunge into liberated mutual sexuality but only manage to get their toes wet. It happens to take place in, of all places, Trenton, N.J. What is truly innovative about the show is that the musicians are on the stage and are actually welded into the play. They sing, dress up in fancy clothes and comment on the action. The band actually won a Drama Desk Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Musical. The show won 2 Tony Awards and ran for over 2 years on Broadway.
