Lovely Susan is madly in love with her husband of five days. He
adores her in return. But…reality begins to creep in. She loves poetry, he loves
food instead. He instructs her that she must ensure the quality and quantity of
the foods he prefers. That brings a wifely frown. What to do? Be his mirror! She
begins to parrot his words as her own. She finds out that he gambles. She wants
to be dealt-in. He’s going to be in a duel. Good for him! Can she watch?
This wickedly clever marriage advice was written in 1856, but could work today.
Something new to try. Well done, Metropolitan Playhouse.
