Book Reviews of Rumors

Book Review: simon's best.
Summary: 5 Stars

i've read almost all of simon's plays - excluding the musicals, as i feel they won't translate well without the music - and rumors is by far the funniest, snappiest of them all. if i were at a performance, i know i would forget that i was in a theater at the time, just as i got so wrapped up in the play sometimes that i couldn't remember i was reading! a must-read for any simon fan, and a good entry into his work for those who've never read anything he's written.

Summary of Rumors

Farce / 5m, 5f / Int. At a large, tastefully appointed Sneden's Landing townhouse, the Deputy Mayor of New York has just shot himself. Though only a flesh wound, four couples are about to experience a severe attack of Farce. Gathering for their tenth wedding anniversary, the host lies bleeding in the other room and his wife is nowhere in sight. His lawyer, Ken and wife Chris must get "the story" straight before the other guests arrive. As the confusions and mis-communications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity. "Light, frothy and fun." - New York Post "Has nothing on its mind except making the audience laugh." - The New York Times "Neil Simon makes people laugh-a lot!" - USA Today "Not only side splitting, but front and back splitting." - NBC-TV
