Synopsis:

The autobiography of a successful American playwright who has won virtually all major awards including the Pulitzer and the Tony, which reveals the struggles that went into becoming the success he is today.

Review: Mike Nichols "Neil, while telling the absolute truth, makes things both funnier and more positive. And then I realize with a pang that this is truly how it was. I miss it. I miss it all."

Steve Martin "Neil Simon has created that rare thing: an autobiographical page-turner. It's a funny and moving work. I cried till I laughed."

Gwen Verdon ""Rewrites" is courageously honest and revealing. We all lived, through Neil, a life full of laughter, wonder and sorrow."

Hal Prince "A life in the theater is often a refuge from childhood demons. Neil Simon has charted his escape route in this characteristically straightforward, self-critical, and compassionate autobiography of his early years."
