Irked Author Paddy Chayefsky Seeks Broadway Exit
Paddy Chayefsky declares he is sick of Broadway and plans to finish his next script elsewhere. He cites economic futility and pressure on creativity, notes fellow playwrights seeking similar exits, and considers funding a playhouse near a university to bypass Broadway. He cites Gideon’s limited box office as a factor and describes his Russia-1917 to Lenin era musical drama in progress with Slavic tunes.
