Overview

Synopsis

The Nervous Set takes place in New York City in 1950 and focuses on the personal life of the editor of an off-beat literary magazine, Brad, and his wife, Jan. The show follows their attempts to find meaning and love in a society they find discontented -- or overly contented to the point of dullness -- as the action moves from Greenwich Village to Connecticut to New York's swanky Upper West Side.
