If nothing else, Delia Ephron’s autobiographical romantic comedy Left on Tenth, opening tonight on Broadway, proves that Ephron, like her late sister Nora, can find the feel-good in even the most unlikely places.
In Left on Tenth, that would be the oncology ward of a Manhattan hospital.

And not long, as it happens, before Ephron begins a mid-life romance that she never saw coming. Played by Julianna Margulies (ER, The Good Wife) with endless appeal that doesn’t shortchange the harsher aspects of a chemo-drenched recovery, the play’s Delia Ephron is still getting used to being alone following the recent death of her husband when a long-ago acquaintance emails from out of the blue after reading Ephron’s New York Times article referencing her widowhood.
