New Faces. This was a series of revues presented by Leonard [Dexter] Sillman (1908–82), a Detroit‐born actor‐turned‐producer, as a showcase for young talent. Editions were offered in 1934, 1936, 1942, 1952, 1956, 1962, and 1968. Players who made early appearances in the show included Imogene Coca, Henry
Fonda, Van Johnson, Eartha Kitt, Paul Lynde, Maggie Smith, T. C. Jones, Madeline
Kahn, and Robert Klein. The 1952 edition was the most successful (365 performances) and probably the best of the series, offering such memorable comic numbers as “Boston Beguine,” sung by Alice Ghostley, and “Monotonous,” sung by Kitt. Among its best sketches were “Oedipus Goes South,” in which Ronny Graham, lolling in a hammock, spoofed a pouting Truman
Capote, and “Tour of the Month,” in which a bandaged Paul Lynde, on crutches, described his recent African safari with his late wife.
