| − | The play tells of Jack's arranged marriage to Roberta and, when the first Roberta is not satisfactory, Roberta II. The play contains nonsensical exchanges and strings of clichés, similar to Ionesco's ''[[The Bald Soprano]]'' and the sort of surreal conceits (Roberta's multiple noses, for example) common in many of his later plays.
