Lee Strasberg - Popular Culture

Popular Culture

Strasberg, his wife Paula, his daughter Susan and his son John, all appear as characters in Robert Brustein's 1998 play Nobody Dies on Friday, which one critic called a "scathing portrait of Strasberg" but one which "can by no means be dismissed as a simple act of character assassination." Brustein, a critic, director and producer, had previously made public his dislike of The Method as a philosophy of acting. The play was produced by Brustein's American Repertory Theatre in Cambridge, Massachusetts and was later presented in Singapore.
