Chapter Two (play)
''Chapter Two'' (1977 play) is a semi-autobiographical play by the director-dramatist Neil Simon about the coping of a recently widowed writer George Schneider who is introduced by his press agent brother Leo to soap opera actress Jennie MacLaine who is also recommended by her best friend Faye. Jennie's marriage to a football player has dissolved after six years. Both are uncertain of themselves as ready to start dating and developing a new romance when the breakup is so soon and he has recurring memories of his deceased wife.
==History==
According to Sheridan Morley, "This was in some ways the turning-point for Simon, the moment when he started to use his own life as something more than an excuse for a gag-fest. It was written as a tribute to Marsha Mason, his second wife, and her tolerance with his long-lasting grief over the death of his first wife...There is something very painful here, in among the gags, about a man trying to come to terms with death rather than a new life."〔Morley, Sheridan. ("Choice of Plays for the In-Laws" ) ''The New York Times'', February 28, 1996〕
