Synopsis
Inspired by Molière's Le Cocu Imaginaire the characters in the play have been replaced with the most popular Hollywood stars of the 1940s - from W.C. Fields to Mae West, Rita Heyworth, Gene Kelly, Jimmy Durante, the Andrews Sisters and Abbott and Costello - to bring the story of two couples, each of whom suspects the other of dallying with the other's half (you have to concentrate to keep up …)
