New Faces

A front row seat for the FIRST musical revue in CinemaScope with STEREOPHONIC SOUND.

Running nearly a year on Broadway in 1952, New Faces combined songs and comedy skits with a quirky plot, then became a 1954 motion picture that reproduced the stage revue with a thin added story. The film follows a producer and performer (Ronny Graham) facing financial trouble as he tries to hold off an angry creditor long enough to open his show; a wealthy Texan offers help if his daughter can appear in the production. The revue helped start the careers of Paul Lynde, Alice Ghostley, Eartha Kitt, Carol Lawrence, Mel Brooks (billed as Melvin Brooks), and lyricist Sheldon Harnick.
