Does NORMAN, IS THAT YOU? get produced any more?
Posted by: clothedboysinging 09:30 am EDT 07/12/18

I am aware of only one production here in Chicago, starring Hans Conried, but that was way back in 1971.
Way too dated, for just about every reason under the sun?

Good God, let's hope not--though I am sure there might be some community theatre in some forsaken town that might do it. What COULD be fun would be for a radical queer troupe to do a deconstructive production of it!

Also, didn't the film with Redd Foxx pretty much do it in as a property with any name appeal? Or did the film actually make money?

I can see a Chicago group like David Cerda's Hell in a Handbag doing a riotous production of this play. I may suggest it the next time I run into him.

I played Garson Hobart in a mid-70s production in Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn. It was my first community theater show. Politically incorrect though it may be, the script is hilariously enjoyable in the same way as "Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla."
