Written by Neil Simon, “I Ought To Be In Pictures” focuses on Herb, a Hollywood scriptwriter currently “at liberty,” who is surprised when his forgotten past reappears in the form of Libby, a teenage daughter who’s trekked from Brooklyn with dreams of movie stardom.

With Steffy, his sometime paramour, at his side, Herb decides to take another stab at fatherhood and hopefully this time, get it right.

The play opened on Broadway in April, 1980, under the direction of Herbert Ross.

In 1982, Simon’s comedy was adapted to film and starred Walter Matthau, Ann-Margaret and Dinah Manoff.
