MY FAVORITE YEAR Book by Joseph Dougherty
Based on the Motion Picture "My Favorite Year", Courtesy of Turner Entertainment Co. Screenplay by Norma Steinberg and Dennis Palumbo Story by Dennis Palumbo Based on the hit film, MY FAVORITE YEAR is the sweet, snappy and altogether beguiling story of young Benjy Stone, a freshman writer on early TV’s “Kaiser Comedy Cavalcade”. Assigned the daunting task of baby-sitting a boozing Hollywood swashbuckler (played in the movie by Peter O’Toole), Benjy learns about human frailty, comedy, love – and what made 1954 his favorite year. Originally produced at Lincoln Center in 1992, the score by Ahrens & Flaherty (“Ragtime”, “Once On This Island”) makes for “bright, breezy, expert entertainment” (New York Times).
