Play Goes on A Memoir

"[A] few entertaining anecdotes...pull back the curtain on incidents like that concerning his uncredited work on A CHORUS LINE or on the story of Tony Curtis's walkout on Simon's I OUGHT TO BE IN PICTURES because the actor could not cope with voluminous rewrites. Simon also includes a few charming vignettes....These, however, feel like pit stops in a dispiriting marathon. It's too bad this master play doctor was not encouraged to perform a little more surgery on his own story."Simon, Neil is the author of 'Play Goes on A Memoir' with ISBN 9780684869803 and ISBN 0684869802.
