  One of the most successful comedies in Broadway history, this warm-hearted series of short plays revolve around such diverse topics as “nudity in theatre,’’ the joys of sex and marriage as related to standard size vs. twin beds, and an elderly married couple discussing comedically the joys of their previous marriages (even though they tend to get very confused about who was best at what).
