SCHENECTADY. SIGN-UP BEGINNING AT 7:15 PM. ROLES FOR 8 MEN AND 2
WOMEN._ _ 

	British talk-show host David Frost has become a lowbrow
laughingstock. Richard M. Nixon has just resigned the United States
presidency in total disgrace over Vietnam and the Watergate scandal.
Determined to resurrect his career, Frost risks everything on a series
of in-depth interviews in order to extract an apology from Nixon. The
cagey Nixon, however, is equally bent on redeeming himself in his
nation's eyes. In the television age, image is king, and both men are
desperate to out-talk and upstage each other as the cameras roll. The
result is the interview that sealed a president's legacy.
