Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who wrote the book to Company?

Answer: George Furth

It was George Furth's series of one-acts on marriage that spurred Hal Prince and Steve Sondheim to create 'Company.'

2. What does Bobby think April's name is when she wakes up to go to Barcelona?

Answer: June

Both names are months, which is probably why Bobby confused them.

3. Where can you feel New York, according to Marta?

Answer: The Rectum

Marta claims that a person can really feel New York by the tightness of his or her rectum.

4. Where did Susan and Peter gain five pounds?

Answer: Mexico

Peter went down to Mexico to get a quickie divorce, and it was so nice that he called for Susan, and they both gained five pounds. Sort of like the Freshman Fifteen. Only, it's the Divorce Five. Which isn't alliterative.

5. What did Bobby bring to dinner with Sarah and Harry?

Answer: Brownies and Bourbon

Bobby brought the Bourbon, because he didn't know Harry was on the wagon, and he brought the brownies because he didn't know Sarah was on a diet. What a couple of faux pas!

6. What does Joanne drink at the club?

Answer: Vodka Stinger

Joanne is constantly wanting more Vodka Stingers.

7. What did Amy leave out of the fridge overnight?

Answer: Orange Juice

Amy claims that the orange juice is "boiling" because it was left out of the fridge. That would mean the temperature of the apartment is over 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Amy is fond of hyperbole, perhaps.

8. What is David's description of Jenny?

Answer: Square

David says he "married a square, a confessed square." Bobby: "Like a fox." Square or fox -- you be the judge.

9. Where is Kathy leaving New York for?

Answer: The Cape

She's going back to the Cape, to get hitched to someone who's not Bobby.

10. What is the last action of the play?

Answer: Blowing out candles

Bobby finally blows out the birthday candles, now that he has driven all his loved ones away, never to return. Also, he had to build up the lung capacity. I mean, 35 candles is an awful lot to blow out. Oh, actually it's 36--one for good luck. And good luck to you, fair reader.
