[edit] Most performed
There should be a citation for the comment that Neil Simon "is the most performed playwright after William Shakespeare". Tkessler 05:50, Mar 15, 2005 (UTC)
- This would be an interesting addition if it could be sourced. Otherwise, how do we know this isn't an "urban theater legend"? ;) David Hoag 00:55, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
he's cool!
[edit] Erroneous link on The Dinner Party
The link for The Dinner Party takes one to a play by Judy Chicago. So a Neil Simon entry needs to be created for TDP and disambiguation cleanup. David Hoag 00:55, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Criticism
Articles here for many prominent artists have a criticism section, how about this one? I recognize Neil Simon's immense talent, but his humor is so relentlessly relentless and squarely square, and so bittersweetly bitter and sweet, I have to shut it off if his work ever pops up on TV. I'm not the one to write the critique, but surely there must be some fancy words for what Neil Simon is way too much of. Also, the "Jewish-American" bit really jumps out. Is it necessary to assign an ethnicity like this?
[edit] Britannica
This article has some sort of citation here [1], in Encyclopaedia Brittanica (it's the third in a list of 13). Anyone know what's going on?--Shtove 08:48, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
