The play has a long and colorful history. John Oxenford's 1835 one-act farce A
Day Well Spent had been extended into a full-length play entitled Einen Jux will
er sich machen by Austrian playwright Johann Nestroy in 1842. In 1938, Wilder
adapted Nestroy's version into an Americanized comedy entitled The Merchant of
Yonkers, which attracted the attention of German director Max Reinhardt, who
mounted a Broadway production. It was a dismal failure, running for a mere 39
performances.
The 1958 film version, adapted by John Michael Hayes and directed by Joseph
Anthony, starred Shirley Booth, Anthony Perkins, Shirley MacLaine, Paul Ford,
and Robert Morse.
In 1964, the play enjoyed yet another incarnation when David Merrick, who had
produced the 1955 Broadway production, mounted a hugely successful, Tony
Award-winning musical version entitled Hello, Dolly!, with a score by Jerry
Herman and starring Carol Channing.
Tom Stoppard's farce, On the Razzle (1981) is yet another play based on the same
story.
