Wild and crazy guy Steve Martin is returning to the Broadway stage with an adaptation of Carl Sternheim's 1911 dark comedy The Underpants. The actor-writer's previous stage works include Picasso At The Lapin Agile in 1993 and 1997's Wasp And Other Plays. Originally staged by Max Reinhardt, Underpants was the first in a Sternheim trilogy that charts a bourgeois family's decline. In the play, a civil servant's wife accidentally drops her underwear during the Kaiser's parade. Subsequently, a series of men proposition her under the guise of renting a room in the apartment she shares with her husband.
