Role: Co-producer Where: New Mercury Theater Playwright: Adapted from the writings of Dr. Seuss
Postcard (clip) I'm very proud of that. We talked Seuss's widow into giving us the rights to do the play. She'd been burned by some television cartoons and had never let anybody else ever handle her husband's material again for twenty-five years. People had tried and hadn't been able to do it, and we were the first ones to get it. I knew at the timeonce we had talked her into it and we got great reviews, I knew that someone else was going to do a Broadway play fairly soon. And it took longer than I thought but I think there'sa Broadway play now, or at last last Christmas, of The Grinch and I take some credit for that. We theater people have to take the credit...
