Synopsis

This ideal comedy for summer stock originally toured with Darren McGavin as the often absent soldier of fortune cargo pilot who desperately attempts to stop his wife's divorce plans and intentions to marry another man.

Sheila gave up her tennis career for marriage and is fed up with living alone.

Unaware of her plans, Gary returns for their anniversary with lavish gifts and romantic thoughts, accompanied by an ultra cynical foreign correspondent who's soured on marriage.

Sheila's intended is a handsome, ex pro football star from her home town.

In high school, he was Sheila's older sister's steady.

Sister is now an ad agency account executive.

As the evening develops into a night of veiled hostility, tactical maneuvering and one upmanship.

An incorrigible, nosy cleaning woman rounds out the cast.
