Last of the Red Hot Lovers

In Neil Simon’s Last of the Red Hot Lovers, a middle-aged owner of a New York fish restaurant named Barney Cashman has been happily married for 23 years. Now, he is desperate to sample the sexual revolution before it’s too late. Enter Elaine, a hard drinking femme fatale; Bobbie, an unemployed night club singer and Jeanette, Barney’s wife’s best friend. Barney’s attempts to seduce these wildly unsuitable candidates in three afternoons of unbridled anticlimax in his Mother’s apartment provide rich opportunities for the sharp and snappy humor.
