An affectionate and hilarious look back at the golden age of vaudeville, Neil Simon’s The Sunshine Boys is the story of Lewis and Clark, two longtime comedy partners whose career and friendship came to a sudden and acrimonious end. After a decade of estrangement, Clark’s nephew persuades the former duo to resurrect their most famous routine for a TV special on the history of comedy. High jinks ensue as the cantankerous coots try to work together despite their longtime feud.
“It’s ham on wry…Simon’s sure footed craftsmanship and his one liners are as exquisitely apt as ever.â€
