The Underpants
A wardrobe malfunction worth seeing
by Sally Mitani
posted 5/1/2004
The Underpants, playing at the Purple Rose through June 5, is based on an early-twentieth-century farce by an obscure German playwright, Carl Sternheim, resurrected and adapted by Steve Martin. Forget Sternheim, whoever he was. This version is pure Steve Martin, as you can tell by the title. Others have translated it as The Unmentionables or A Pair of Drawers,
