Barefoot in the Park  
published: Random House, June 1964 premiered: Biltmore Theatre, New York City, 1963
I was and am very fond of Barefoot in the Park. A light and delicate play that seems so easy to do and yet can be more difficult to bring off than weightier subjects. "Hard earned simplicity is the keynote," to quote, I believe, Oscar Hammerstein II.... A big thanks to director Mike Nichols for bringing it off.
