Synopsis

Once in a Lifetime

Once in a Lifetime $10.99

Moss Hart & George S. Kaufman

Published by Samuel French Inc

2 Male 1 Female

This is the rollicking tale of three down and out troupers who decide to head for Hollywood and try their luck with the newly invented talkies

Due to a series of consistent blunders, the most stupid of the three is carried to pinnacles of fame and fortune until he's literally made a god of the industry

It's a fast paced and wild romp and a marvelous spoof of tinsel land.

The Pullman car and waiting room episodes are classics in hilarity

REVIEWS

"Ideal summer theatre... [with] comic climaxes that distinguish the humor of the 30s .... Grand chains of lunacy" ~ N.Y. Times

"Lovely play .... Gracefully insane" ~ N.Y. Post
