BAREFOOT IN THE PARK is a romantic comedy stage play by Neil Simon. The play premiered on Broadway in 1963, starring Robert Redford and Elizabeth Ashley. It was made into a film in 1967, starring Redford and Jane Fonda.

Corie and Paul Bratter are a newlywed couple whose first home, is an apartment on the top floor of a brownstone in New York City. Corie is the optimistic half about their future together, while Paul, is more anxious and grounded. He worries about the various flaws in the apartment, such as the hole in the skylight, or the leaky closet, or the lack of a bathtub.

During the course of four days, the couple learn to live together while facing the usual daily ups-and-downs. Corie wants Paul to become more easy-going: for example, to run “barefoot in the park”.
