1 Male 1 Female

In this moving chronicle of a husband and wife from their wedding night in 1890 until they pack and move 35 years later

They fret and quarrel, laugh and cry and make love in the same room in which they began their married life. And throughout the evening, standing in the corner, is the old fourposter, scene of all their endearing memories

You will find it very hard not to laugh when Michael discovers his son has had his first drink, or not to cry when he steals from under the pillow the silly memento his wife has left for the new bride and owner of the fourposter

"Pleasantest comedy of the season" ~ N.Y. Times

"It's good to have another hit on Broadway. It's good to chuckle again, to be moved again" ~ Daily Mirror
