Rates are low, d©cor is rococco art deco and the clientele is...convivial. As a Cleveland sanitation company owner reasons, this New York all-male bathhouse is ideal for hiding from his murderous brother-in-law. But what this new arrival and his fellow patrons get is an exercise in manic mayhem from director Richard Lester, bringing Terrence McNally€s hit Broadway farce to spicy screen life. Adding more spice are five cast members of the stage original: Jack Weston, Jerry Stiller, F. Murray Abraham, Paul B. Price and especially Rita Moreno as clueless Googie Gomez, the role for which she captured a Tony Award. Kaye Ballard and Treat Williams add to the tasty guest list. Check into The Ritz. You€ve got roomfuls of laughter to check out.
