Synopsis
Inspired by Simon's early career experience as a junior writer (along with
his brother Danny) for Your Show of Shows, the play focuses on Sid
Caesar-like Max Prince, the star of a weekly comedy-variety show circa
1953, and his staff, including Simon's alter-ego Lucas Brickman, who
maintains a running commentary on the writing, fighting, and wacky antics
which take place in the writers' room. Max has an ongoing battle with NBC
executives, who fear his humor is too sophisticated for Middle America.
