Synopsis

This hilarious play concerns a New York architect's attempts to save his marriage.

A simple, quiet man, Philip yearns for a peaceful existence while his wife Karen craves excitement.

A friend suggests that Philip become a hero in the eyes of his wife by pretending to lead a mysterious double life.

The scheme works perfectly until coincidence allows fiction to overtake reality and the couple is thrust into the seamy New York underworld.

Karen is kidnapped and Philip, posing as a Mafia godfather to save her, unwittingly helps the police break up a major criminal network.

The action moves with absurd logic from one cliff hanging situation to another until all is resolved ... except Karen's questions about what sort of man her husband really is.

This clever and original play engages with its blend of quick paced action, comical situations, high drama, endearing characters and witty dialogue.
