Tired of the relentlessly pointless plays littering the season and yearning for the deep contentment one gets from a gentle and satisfying human comedy? Look no further than Paul Osborne's 1939 charmer, Morning's at Seven, which was rediscovered two decades ago and, thankfully, re-rediscovered again, courtesy of director Daniel Sullivan and a nifty cast of old pros, most notably William Biff McGuire, Elizabeth Franz, Estelle Parsons and Buck Henry.
Some of the not-as-old pros are a little too obvious or wink the subtext at the audience, but no matter. This tale of four sisters, three husbands and four houses adds up to a (nearly) four-star evening.
