Being performed at two venues by TNT in Hackensack (HacPac) AND the following weekend at Studio Playhouse in Montclair directed by John Fraissinet.
The Plot: It’s 1929. Two ambitious visionaries race against each other to invent a device called “television.” Separated by two thousand miles, each knows that if he stops working, even for a moment, the other will gain the edge. Who will unlock the key to the greatest innovation of the 20th century: the ruthless media mogul, or the self-taught Idaho farm boy?
The answer comes to compelling life in The Farnsworth Invention, from Aaron Sorkin, creator of The West Wing, The Newsroom and The Social Network.
Cast includes: Sam Petricone as David Sarnoff and Joey Nasta as Philo T. Farnsorth. With Fred Alvaro, Arthur Carlson, Jonathan Deck, Laura DiCerto, Marisa Dolkart, Nathan Kossoy, Beatriz Esteban-Messina, Ian Evans, Donna Fraissinet, Ann Grippo, Eddie Honan, Brian Laub, Victoria Lopez, Rebecca Lopkin, Grace Lyttle, Richard Pearson, Jack Pignatello, Alexis Saarela, Tara Spinelli, Ashley Teel playing 62 characters.
