David and Barbara Khan are art dealers living in Manhattan. Their domestic tranquility is shattered upon the arrival of Barbara's goody-goody
nerd of a sister, Trudy, her uptight CPA husband, Martin, and Barbara and Trudy's archetypcal Jewish Mother, Sophie. Everyone has arrived to try to save Trudy and
Martin's college student daughter from the horrors of living only for sex. The comic sparks begin to fly when the mother hits it off with the elderly minimalist
artist who is David's best client!
"Just when you were beginning to think you were never going to laugh again..., along comes Social Security
and you realize that it is once more safe to giggle in the streets. Indeed, you can laugh out loud, joyfully, with, as it were, social security,
for the play is a hoot, and better yet, a sophisticated, even civilized hoot." -- N.Y. Post
