Joan Rivers, Lester Colodny, and Edgar Rosenberg’s sharp contemporary comedy 'Fun City' launched its highly publicized 1972 pre-Broadway out-of-town tryout engagement at the historic Morosco Theatre. The fast-paced drawing-room plot unfolds inside a chaotic Manhattan apartment during a sweltering transit strike, tracking a high-strung, fiercely opinionated young woman who orchestrates a frantic series of deceptions to balance her environmental activism with her husband's corporate career, collapsing into farcical chaos. Directed by Jerry Adler, the historic production famously marked the official, monumentally anticipated Broadway acting debut of comedic legend Joan Rivers.
