Summary
From the New York Times production review: "Mr. Badgett takes the role of a young man armed with a mountain of books, a torrent of words and a whirlwind of athletic motion who confronts Harry Mann as a character armed only with a tenor saxophone and a few sharp remarks. At the end of their hour together they are changed men, and anyone who hears their (sometimes unspoken) interchanges will be mightily changed too."
