by George S Kaufman, Marc Connelly
Synopsis
One of the most striking and successful of modern fantastic plays.
It is concerned with the dream of a young composer who imagines that he is marrying an unattractive girl for her money.
The play has to do with the adventures, distorted by his imagination, that come to him as a slave of gold and an impossible family.
The play is a rich combination of romance and satire.
