		In a few years, New Faces will be remembered only as the show that introduced Broadway to Eartha Kitt.

		Many of the new faces have the talent and personality to become nationally familiar.

		New Faces of 1956 was to have been a two-LP set.
		One hopes that when New Faces of 1956 finally makes it to CD, these eight tracks will be included along with the rest of the score.
		With the accompaniment of a small (five-piece) orchestra, the '68 New Faces is by far the least interesting of the New Faces cast albums.

		Once the NEW FACES concept took hold, it became a marketable commodity and in 1948 Maxwell House sponsored a radio version for which Paddy Chayevsky wrote and performed a song about the Champs Elysees of the Bronx, Mosholo Parkway.
		NEW FACES OF 1952 was the first Broadway revue made into a theatrical film.
		Judging from the video, the theatrical version of NEW FACES replaced a few of the cast members, billed them in order of their importance (screen time) instead of alphabetically, and reshuffled the running order of the numbers, dropping quite a few and adding some others.

		Harnick had been a dance band violinist before moving to New York in, where he had several of his songs performed in revues such as "New Faces of 1952" ("Boston Beguine") and "Shoestring Revue."

	Comedy Central: Movies - New Faces of 1952 - Plot Summary
		Producer Leonard Sillman's 1952 edition of his popular Broadway revue New Faces was filmed just as it was staged, save for a wraparound fictional romantic story.
		The newly grafted plotline involves the efforts of director Ronny Graham to stave off an angry creditor long enough to open his show.
		Its production flaws and budget shortcomings notwithstanding, the wide-screen, full-color New Faces of 1952 offers a rare opportunity for a 1990s audience to see what a 50s-style musical revue really looked like to the opening-night crowd.

	Eartha Kitt Biography :: Hollywood.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		She made her mark in film in the 1950s, beginning with her dazzling quartet of songs in the otherwise dreary "New Faces of 1952"/"New Faces" (1954), a screen record of the popular Broadway revue.
		Although Kitt starred in the musical biography of W C Handy, "St. Louis Blues", in the title role in "Anna Lucasta" (both 1958), and was the subject of a 1981 documentary "All By Myself", her career has been uneven.
		Reviews of the show were mixed, but critics were invariably transfixed and impressed with the still-striking diva's potent presence.

		Kitt first made a name for herself in New York in the revue New Faces of 1952.
		When the new girlfriend meets Bronsky's son, Richard (Christopher Kromer), we guess that the handsome, unhappy son will eventually end up with her, but the play goes somewhere else entirely.
		The script is heavily laced with sharp dialogue; the characters toss off clever lines left and right, though all of these one-liners do eventually make the piece feel more written than lived in the moment.

	Rita Moreno
		Touted as "the incomparable Rita Moreno," Rosa Dolores Alverio was born in Puerto Rico and moved to New York at the age of five.
		Her voice, not particularly strong at the top of her register, was more effective in selling songs like Guess Who I Saw Today (as poignant today as it must have been in New Faces of 1952) and New York City Blues.
		That, and other New York-specific material, makes the Plush Room gig seem like a tryout for her advertised engagement at the Algonquin Hotel later this fall.

		It features such classics as “The Last Aurochs,” “A Vegetable Emergency,” “Utopia TV Store,” “New Faces of 1952” and provides the reader with ample evidence that Maxine Chernoff continues to be one of the most significant practitioners of the prose poem in America today.
		As Michael Benedikt, editor of The Prose Poem: An International Anthology, said of her work, “Underlying all of Maxine Chernoff’s prose poems is the possibility of magic.” Writing in the fabulist mode, she explores the bizarre in everyday life and questions the very rules of engagement with language, social norms, and politics.
