In the original play, Barabara Smith and Mary Smith are both the wives of John Smith. They do not know about each other. John is able to make this work due to his irregular working schedule as a taxi driver. When he goes to the hospital for minor injuries, he confusedly gives them two addresses.((New York Times article about “Run for Your Wife”: https://www.nytimes.com/1990/05/06/nyregion/theater-review-run-for-your-wife-an-off-color-joke.html))
