The Royal Family
August 8
, 2009
No show cheered up New York more in 1927 than this madcap comedy of a celebrated family of charismatic (but chaotic) actors, their agents, their lovers, and their put-upon servants. Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago recently revived this comic jewel leading reviewers to say “highly entertaining … like a backstage glass of cheap, opening night champagne, it fizzes deliciously on the tongue… pleasingly intoxicating….a love-letter to, and satire of, life in the theater.”
