Veteans of stage and screen, Hal Linden and Bernie Kopell, will team up for the world premiere of Two Jews, Talking, a new comedy by Emmy, Peabody, and Golden Globe Award-winning writer Ed. Weinberger. The show will be directed by Dan Wackerman and will have an open-ended run Off-Broadway at Theatre at St. Clement’s beginning on Saturday, August 20.
The production is described as a hilarious romp through time. Two one-act plays bring Lou and Bud together in the Biblical past, and Phil and Marty together in contemporary Long Island. They philosophize about women, sex, food, the divine and destiny in this tale of companionship and friendship.
Linden is well-known for his title role on the hit ABC television series “Barney Miller” (1975-1982). He made his Broadway debut in 1957 in the musical Bells Are Ringing opposite Judy Holliday, and went on to win the Tony Award for Best Actor in 1971 for his portrayal of Mayer Rothschild in The Rothschilds. Kopell played Dr. Adam Bricker on “The Love Boat” and over the span of his career, has appeared on well over a hundred TV series, including “Get Smart,” “The Flying Nun” and “That Girl.”
