The renowned comic actor and author of Picasso at the Lapine Agile provides a wild satire adapted from the
classic German play about Louise and Theo Markes, a couple whose conservative existence is shattered
when Louise's bloomers fall down in public. Though she pulls them up quickly, he thinks the incident will
cost him his job as a government clerk. Louise's momentary display does not result in the feared scandal
but it does attract two infatuated men, each of whom wants to rent the spare room in the Markes' home.
Oblivious of their amorous objectives, Theo splits the room between them, happy to collect rent from both
the foppish poet and the whiny hypochondriac.
