Sommario/riassunto |
|
In this uproarious short play from the "Dean of American Letters," goodhearted but impractical protagonist Edward Roberts sets out to lighten his wife's domestic workload by hiring a household cook. A series of increasingly absurd difficulties rear their heads, and Roberts' quest fails in a rather spectacular fashion. |
