  Full Length, Comedy Characters: 2 male, 3 female Interior set Neil Simon at his most humane, compassionate best. It's a humorous confection divided into four parts: Visitor from New York, Visitor from Philadelphia, Visitors from London and Visitors from Chicago. In Visitor from New York, Hannah, a magazine writer is joined by her ex-husband, the question being with whom should their daughter spend the next six months? The badinage flies fast and furious but Hannah's well-wrought artifice crumbles as her fears take hold. The Visitor from Philadelphia is a wife who arrives at the suite, catching her husband en flagrante delicto with a drunken hooker. Visitors from London brings a British star as Academy Award nominee. Diana returns from the ceremony empty-handed to husband Sidney whose homosexuality will be no comfort tonight... The Visitors from Chicago are two couples ending a disastrous vacation they should not have shared.
