A native New Yorker, Neil Simon is recognized as Broadway's King of Comedy. Following his very successful 1961 production of COME BLOW YOUR HORN, Simon's name on a script basically meant instant box office sell-outs during the era from 1960-1980, the Great White Way's era of comic plays.
A memorial tribute has been set up for Neil Simon outside of his namesake theatre. People have left flowers in memory of the legendary playwright, as well as a note.
