By George S. Kaufman and Edna Ferber. Cast size: 15 men, 12 women, 7 interiors. Premiered on October 22, 1932 at the Music Box Theatre. It received rave reviews and ran 232 performances.
Kaufman's first hit comedy was also his initial collaboration with Marc Connelly. Based on a well-known comic heroine made popular in Frank Pierce Adams' column, Dulcy is an engaging comedy about an incipient business deal among suburban neighbors that nearly falls apart.
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.
