Thirty-eight years old and married for seven years, Richard Sherman's wife and boy leave him alone with his vivid imagination for the summer. What no one was expecting is that a new girl has taken the upstairs apartment for the summer and Mr. Sherman can't stop thinking about his waning youth or his marriage, which has become so comfortable.
Funny, charming and not as innocent as the movie. Not to compare it to the movie, which I really love, but the whole play takes part in the Sherman's apartment, with Sherman's fantasy scenes played out with "dream lighting" and actors offstage providing the inner dialogue. Also, the relationship with the girl upstairs is more complicated.

If you like the movie, you'd like the play. (
