About this Event
The Value of Names
Starring Jeremy Kareken, Katherine Lyle & Tim Hardy
Hollywood, 1983. Up and coming actress Norma is staying with her father, Benny, as she begins rehearsing a project. Benny was a blacklisted actor, and they discover the new director assigned to Norma's show is Leo, the man who gave Benny's name to the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) and derailed his career. Norma is faced with the choice of giving up a career making role or hurting her father, Benny is faced with the knowledge his daughter is working closely with the man who betrayed him, and Leo comes face to face for the first time with the consequences of his actions so many years ago. The three of them have things to settle, you bet. Funny and confrontational.
