Does anyone know how to pull of "Barefoot in the Park" in a black box? The box has an alcove that I think can be used for a landing- but I'm wondering how to simplify the set?

It seems fairly straight forward, just a single set?
Can you give more info!

I've done the show and we consider out theater a blackbox. It's a show that can be done on almost any stage. One of the running jokes of the show is how small the apartment is so it should even work on a fairly small stage.
