New York City
MONEY tells the story of an extremely wealthy young man, Harry Clay, who has never worked a day in his life. He has just met a woman named Cynthia Burgess, whom he instantly wants to marry, though he doesn’t yet know her name. While clearly flattered, she refuses to accept his proposal until he seeks a more meaningful path in life. Harry tries, he really does; he even goes so far as a prolonged attempt to land a job – any job! With Cynthia’s friend Bernie Bartok wary and jealous of Harry’s intrusions, and a fourth character, Mr. Mann, bounding in and out of over 20 different roles — from waiter to corporation executive, from doctor to beggar, from nudist to grey-haired old lady — MONEY is a fast-paced and funny commentary on the early 1960s, and the show remains fresh to this day.
