It featured a solid cast of G. Ray Bodley‚Äôs finest ac- tors, and went off without a hitch. The show was set entirely within a room of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, shortly before the start of a wedding. Each of the dozen characters has their own problems and agenda, and secrets they are hiding from the others, that keep leading back into the room. They also each had extremely varied roles, and seeing them all interact in different ways created a very entertaining comedy. Between the quest of the groom and best man for pants, the suspicions of a jealous mobster, a drunken bride and a rabbi who may or may not be hallucinating, the play always has something exciting and hilari- ous going on.
