Chapter Two presented by Reston Community Players at CenterStage Theater

The only living playwright to have a Broadway theater named in his honor, Neil Simon is the definition of a theatrical legend, unparalleled in his ability to make audiences laugh and cry. His mastery of both comedy and tragedy is nowhere more apparent than in Chapter Two. Here, the genius behind the The Odd Couple and Murder by Death uses the raw material of his own life to write the story of George Schneider, a middle-aged writer struggling to accept his wife's untimely passing. After a series of wildly unsuccessful dates, he finally meets a "keeper," Jennie Malone. Coping with their separate tragedies, George and Jennie must discover not when, but how, they can start Chapter Two of their lives. Whimsical dialogue and real-life emotions mix in this production from Reston Community Players.
