Daniel J. Travanti, a two-time Emmy winner for his role as Captain Frank Furillo on "Hill Street Blues," stars in Oren Safdie's The Last Word…, which opened Feb 8 at Theatre at St. Clement's and runs through March 11.
Alex Lippard directs the production, which also stars Adam Green. The play is presented by Les Gutman and Elizabeth Cockrell in association with Friendly Fire.
According to press notes, "Travanti stars as Henry Grunwald, a Viennese Jew who fled the Nazis and became a successful advertising executive in New York. Now retired and determined to fulfill his dream of becoming a playwright, Henry engages the assistance of a young, opinionated NYU student who shares his passion for writing and headstrong spirit in this new play about friendship, loyalty, dreams and, ultimately, coming to terms with the past–and present."
