Throughout his career, Kaufman made a fine art out of the revue sketch, the most popular theatrical form on Broadway in the 1920s and early 1930s. Several of his sketches are absolute classics and they can be singly or as part of a larger evening.
In a rare collaboration with his Algonquin Round Table comrade, Alexander Woollcott, Kaufman wrote his only murder mystery.
By George S. Kaufman And Morrie Ryskind. Cast size: 10 men, 5 women (some doubling possible). One set. The Royal Family opened at the Selwyn Theater on December 28, 1927 and went on to run 343 performances.
