May 1995
Benny Silverman, a retired, successful actor, seems to have surmounted the bitter time in his life when Leo Greshen, a good friend and colleague named him in front of the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Bennys flourishing career was nearly destroyed, and his comeback was slow and painful. The two men havent spoken since. But they are forced to deal with each other 30 years after the fact, when Bennys daughter wins a career-making role in a hot new play Leo is directing.

A L.A. Theatre Works full-cast performance featuring: Hector Elizondo,Garry Marshall, Sally Murphy

Jeffrey Sweet's "The Value of Names" is the consummate example of a show that can be successful heard but not seen. -- CompuServe

More About the Author

Aside from writing scripts (plays, musicals, TV stuff, the odd screenplay), I write about writing, teach writing, run workshops in improvisation, occasionally direct, and sometimes perform. It is my great pleasure to serve on the Council of the Dramatists Guild, to be resident playwright of the Victory Gardens Theatre of Chicago, to be a member of Ensemble Studio Theatre and to be an alum of New Dramatists. I live in New York, but frequently travel to participate in productions of my stuff or to teach guest workshops at universities and professional schools.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Value of Names (Paperback)
This play which i saw many years ago with Shelley Berman playing the lead is one of the most memorable plays i have ever see. It is an unforgettable picture of betrayal and the heartbreak it causes. This is a special favorite of mine.Read it!
