THE LEARNED LADIES OF PARK AVENUE

by David Grimm.

This humours play is a reimagining of a work classic French playwrite Moliere –

The Learned Ladies (or Les Femmes Savantes).

The story: A jazz-age screwball comedy riff on Molière’s biting satire of pretense and learning. Betty wants to marry Dicky. Her mother Phyllis, a self-proclaimed intellectual and political activist, has another man in mind—namely, the hack poet and scheming opportunist Upton Gabbitt. Set in 1936 Manhattan against the backdrop of the Great Depression and impending war, this romantic comedy skewers those who wear their so-cial conscience on their sleeve and affirms that love conquers all.
