Synopsis

The New York production was directed by Mike Nichols and ran for two seasons.

Nancy is seventeen, new to the city, and loses herself on the way to the YWCA.

She meets three young men of varying types: Tom, a smallish, nervous chap; Colin, tall, awkward, and unsure; and Tolen, a well-built hound dog on two legs.

When they meet Nancy in swinging 60’s London, all three go about proving their skills.
