Working in the Theatre

Performance (13x2)

Air date: Sep 03, 1991

The panel of performers - Hinton Battle ("Miss Saigon"), Roy Dotrice ("The Homecoming"), Timothy Hutton ("Babylon Gardens"), Mary Louise Parker ("Babylon Gardens"), Teresa Wright ("On Borrowed Time"), Stephanie Zimbalist ("The Baby Dance") - discuss working in regional and repertory theatre; where they started out in show business, if it was a family profession; the process of getting an agent; how the stage compares to television and film; and how different theatre spaces, sets, and stage sizes affect a show. Jean Dalrymple & Brendan Gill moderate.
