Peter Barnes’s highly publicized 1963 dark comedy thriller farce 'The Time of the Barracudas' infamously collapsed, encountered catastrophic critical review tracking, and closed on the road during its out-of-town pre-Broadway tryout engagement at Los Angeles's historic Huntington Hartford Theatre, never reaching its planned New York debut. The breathless farcical plot centers on a highly dysfunctional, bickering couple who orchestrate an intricate series of deceptions to execute murder plots plots against each other, starring stage legends Elaine Stritch and Laurence Harvey.
