I had been debating about skipping it and just going to the party and then decided I needed to see the show. I wish I had just skipped it. Terrible, terrible show &#8230; and it&#8217;s no fault of the actors or director. It&#8217;s that super crappy script\/story that Neil Simon wrote. In fact, I think the only reason this play got produced in the first place was not because of any sign of quality, but on the mere fact that Neil Simon&#8217;s name is attached to it. I felt bad for all those talented people up there spouting Simon&#8217;s insipid dialogue. Ugh.<\/p>\n<p>Got some much put off freelance work started on. Hooray!
