Kaufman & Company: Broadway Comedies: The Royal Family (1), Animal Crackers (109), June Moon (195), Once in a Lifetime (273), Of Thee I Sing (396), Dinner at Eight (469), Stage Door (591), You Can't Take It With You (687), The Man Who Came to Dinner (763); Kaufman Chronology (849), Biographical Notes (869), Note on the Texts (874), Copyrights & Acknowledgments (880), Notes (881) * ABOUT THE BOOK: If Eugene O'Neill represents the tragic mask of American drama, then George S. Kaufman can easily lay claim to its smiling counterpart. No other comic dramatist in America has enjoyed more popular success & perennial influence or been more fortunate in his choice of collaborators, who included George & Ira Gershwin, Moss Hart, Irving Berlin, & the Marx Brothers. Here, in the most comprehensive collection of his plays ever assembled, are 9 classics: his uproarious "backstage" play "The Royal Family" (1927, written with Edna Ferber); the Marx Brothers-inspired mayhem of "Animal Crackers" (1928, w/ Morrie Ryskind) in a version discovered in Groucho Marx's papers & published here for the first time; "June Moon" (1929, w/ Ring Lardner), a hilarious look at a young composer trying to make it big on Tin Pan Alley; "Once in a Lifetime" (1930, w/ Moss Hart), one of the first & best satires of Hollywood; Pulitzer Prize winners "Of Thee I Sing" (1931, w/ Morrie Ryskind & Ira Gershwin) & "You Can't Take It with You" (1936, w/ Moss Hart); "Dinner at Eight" (1932, w/ Edna Ferber), a tart ensemble piece that mixes comedy & melodrama; "Stage Door" (1936, w/ Edna Ferber), his much-loved story about young actresses trying to make it big in New York City; & "The Man Who Came to Dinner" (1939, w/ Moss Hart), an unforgettable burlesque of America's cult of celebrity. Bursting with vernacular wit, farcical ingenuity, & theatrical panache, these plays have remained beloved favorites & exuberant reminders of Broadway in its glory days. * ABOUT THE EDITOR: Laurence Maslon is an associate arts professor at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts & a former associate artistic director at Arena Stage in Washington, D.C. He was senior consultant & co-writer for 2 episodes of the 6-part PBS series "Broadway: The American Musical" as well as coauthoring w/ Michael Kantor the companion volume for the documentary. * THE LIBRARY OF AMERICA is an award-winning, nonprofit program dedicated to publishing America's best & most significant writing in handsome, enduring volumes, featuring authoritative texts. Hailed as "the most important book-publishing project in the nation's history" (Newsweek), this acclaimed series is restoring America's literary heritage in "the finest-looking, longest-lasting edition ever made" (New Republic).
