| I was surprised to find Alan Alda's name among the producers of this ''Purlie Victorious'' revival. But then some Googling revealed what I didn't know: Alda played Charlie, Ol' Cap'n's rebellious young son, in the original 1961 production, alongside Ossie Davis, Ruby Dee and Godfrey Cambridge. What's more, there's a 1963 movie of ''Purlie Victorious,'' retitled ''Gone Are the Days!,'' and it features almost the entire Broadway cast, including Alda. |
