...LIFE, by Murray Schisgal (Luv), starring Lou Jacobi (Don't Drink the Water). A man in a park, apartment, business office...
Prestige Sound. The script is then delivered to a production group usually an independent agency. In the casting process, actors are chosen for the "authentic look," Jack Gilford, for instance, seems typecast as the conniving Cracker Jack addict, and Lou Jacobi looks every bit the beleaguered traveling salesman in a Hertz ad.
