Jed and Boyd are ambitious young songwriters hosting a backer's audition to finance their show The Big Bang, the most extravagant musical ever written. However for this evening it's just the two guys madly tearing around a Park Avenue penthouse using every available piece of furniture and home décor to act out all the parts of their show whose subject is the entire history of the world. Adam and Eve enjoy free food in Eden. Slaves kvetch about schlepping stones to build the pyramids. Nefertiti's a soul diva. Caesar ignores the soothsayer's warning about getting "whacked". Pocahontas and Minnehaha in a Manhattan bar bemoan the lackluster dating scene. And a hasty closing number sums up the whole 20th century in one frantic finale. The writing is brilliantly clever, outrageous stereotypes abound (leave political correctness at the door) and the energy never lags as Time flies by in a flurry of hilarity.
