Aspiring intellectual and upper class matron Marjorie Taub has come to the realization that she never will be more than mediocre. This isn't helped by her elderly mother's constant complaints about her shortcomings and her husband's altruistic dedication to serving the needs of the homeless.
Following an emotional outburst at a Disney Store, Marjorie retires to the safety of her home to wallow. Unexpectedly invading her depression is flamboyant childhood friend Lee who becomes entrenched in the Taub household as a seemingly permanent guest, not only drawing Marjorie out of her dark mood but affecting her marriage as well.
The show was nominated for 3 Tony awards and 2 Outer Critics and Drama Desk awards.
