Overview

In 1964, an actor who has been blacklisted for twelve years faces a dilemma: should he accept the lead in a Broadway show and the subsequent movie even though they are directed by the man who named him to the McCarthy commission or should he swallow his contempt for acting in commercials and do a toilet paper ad. Bitter confrontations and amusing banter are woven into the ironic twists of the plot.

In Six Award Winning Plays.
