Center Stage: The Neil Simon Plays
 
Playbill Radio takes you upstairs to the fourth-floor dining room at Sardi's theatrical restaurant in Times Square. It was rented out by legendary producer Manny Azenberg so reporters could have sit-downs with the cast of what was planned as an unusual Broadway experiment. Two plays by Neil Simon, Brighton Beach Memoirs and Broadway Bound were to have been presented in repertory. It helped that the two plays have many of the same characters, being a semi-autobiographical portrait of Simon's own family, in the first play during the depression of the 1930s, and the second a decade later after the trauma of World War II. However, the first show closed after just a few performances, and the second has been cancelled. Hear director David Cromer, stars Laurie Metcalf, and Dennis Boutsikaris and producer Azenberg himself talk about the productions that now will never be.
