America’s comedy master sets this piece in the “Polish Tearoom,” a place not unlike the real Hotel Edison coffee shop in NYC where Simon once sipped coffee while meeting with other entertainment pros. In this warm and gentle comedy of remembrance, show business insiders, Broadway wannabes and the occasional tourist traipse in and out, each with a unique story. All the while a 60-ish Borsht Belt standup, Mickey Fox, dispenses one-liners, negotiates with a London producer and deals with a very needy brother-in-law.
