Delphi Or Bust

Ken Ludwig's The Gods of Comedy
by Ken Ludwig
Synopsis
Daphne and Ralph are young classics professors who have just made a discovery that's sure to turn them into academic superstars.
But something goes disastrously wrong, and Daphne cries out in a panic, "Save me, gods of ancient Greece!"…and the gods actually appear!
The Ivy League will never be the same as a pair of screwball deities encounters the carnal complexity of college coeds, campus capers, and conspicuous consumption.
Press Reviews
"Spirited fun! Plenty of winning physical comedy – the show’s crowd-pleasing vibe feels all about the broad humor and madcap antics of Golden Age TV and film comedy."
— The San Diego Union-Tribune
"A very funny, Mel-Brooksian romp through academia, Greek mythology, and personal empowerment."
— Broadway Street Review
