Cobb has invested all his money commissioning Jones' next play, which he believes will eclipse his Broadway debute - hailed by critics as a "masterpiece of comic timing." Banking on Jones' reputation and momentum, Cobb is disheartened to find his playwright suffering from a severe case of depression: he's morose; he won't eat; he can't write - in fact all he wants to do is drink Cobb's bourbon and sleep all day in the $250-per-night luxury room, at Cobb's considerable expense. Right-hand man, Charlie Bascher, is charged with keeping the kid at the typewriter, distracting him from the booze, and figuring out the cause for his distemper. What happens when you've paid for the next hit comedy, but what's coming out of the typewriter is tragedy? IN this "vintage" screwball comedy skewering an artistic life in the theatre, the line between comdey and drama comes under hilarious scrutiny and is found to be much narrower - and sillier - than you'd think." $c --back cover. 650 0 $a Theatrical producers and directors $v Drama. 650 0 $a Dramatists $v Drama. 650 0 $a American farces. 650 7 $a American farces. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807046 650 7 $a Dramatists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00897549 650 7 $a Theatrical producers and directors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01149443 655 7 $a Drama. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Farces. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423879 655 7 $a Farces. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726610 830 0 $a Samuel French acting edition. 941 $a 1 952 $l AAPF906 $d 20190717034206.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7BB2DD3AC45211E79160C83B97128E48 994 $a C0 $b LG@Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
