SUMMARY

Successful playwright Al Pacino attempts to ply his trade, but his neurotic wife, Tuesday Weld, and her pestering but lovable children, the products of her four marriages, continually interrupt him. Just as the writer is about to complete his first play in two years, Weld takes off to live with another man, leaving him to manage the children, rehearsals, and Dyan Cannon, his new leading lady in real life and onstage.
