7 Males, 5 females - various ages

Set in a hospital, everyone is mistaken for someone else as Dr. Mortimore tries to fend off a paternity suit, an ex-lover, a punkish son, a domineering Head Nurse, and various other lunatics so that he may deliver the Ponsonby Lecture to an international conference. Laughs abound as doors slam, and people enter & exit at a furious pace, keeping everyone guessing the end until the last minute.
