Neil Simon's comedy follows a straight-laced young bachelor whose orderly apartment and life are thrown into disarray when he lets his freewheeling, womanizing older brother move in temporarily. As the brother's chaotic parade of girlfriends, late nights, and get-rich-quick schemes collides with his own budding romance and strained relationship with their disapproving father, the apartment becomes a pressure cooker of farcical mishaps and family tension. Beneath the fast-paced comedy runs a warmer story about sibling loyalty and a father's exasperated love for two very different sons. It's an early, characteristically New York-flavored entry in Simon's long run of hit Broadway comedies.
