A fascinating series featuring leading Hollywood and showbusiness stars, as they return to their old training-ground - the legendary Actor's Studio - for in-depth, revealing interviews in front of an audience of today's students, tomorrow's stars. Neil Simon has been called 'the most successful playwright on the planet'. He has written 28 plays and holds the record for the highest number of Broadway hits. But the film industry is also indebted to him, not only for the plays that have made it to the screen in classic films such as The Odd Couple and Sunday in the Park, but also for his original screenplays for pictures such as The Sunshine Boys. Recent years have brought a new found critical respect for Simon as a more serious playwright, but he can still crack a joke more quickly and more amusingly than most.
