Twitter Capsule: Everybody acts as if they're in a charming, distinguished comedy. Maybe only they can see it? Surely worked better on stage.

VOR: ②  The play was a legend on the boards. Stewart played the part repeatedly, in multiple media, and cited it as a favorite. Hull got an Oscar. Don't let me stop you. And yet.
