New Faces Synopsis
New Faces was a musical revue with songs and comedy skits tied together by a quirky plot. It ran on Broadway for nearly a year in 1952 and was then made into a motion picture in 1954. It helped jump start the careers of several young performers including Paul Lynde, Alice Ghostley, Eartha Kitt, Carol Lawrence, performer/writer Mel Brooks (as Melvin Brooks), and lyricist Sheldon Harnick. The film was basically a reproduction of the stage revue with a thin plot added. The plot involved a producer and performer (Ronny Graham) in financial trouble and is trying to stave off an angry creditor long enough to open his show. A wealthy Texan offers to help out, on the condition that his daughter be in the show.
New Faces (1954) is a music and comedy film directed by John Beal, released on February 19, 1954 with a runtime of 1h 38m. It stars Eartha Kitt, Ronny Graham, Robert Clary and Alice Ghostley. Viewers rate it 5.9 out of 10 across 9 ratings.
