On the Waterfront: The Play - Paperback
by Budd Schulberg (Author), Stan Silverman (With)
Budd Schulberg's classic story of the New York waterfront and the kid who "coulda been a contender" is best known in its memorable movie version with Marlon Brando. But here, adapted for the stage by Mr. Schulberg and Stan Silverman, it remains a moving and powerful drama. This play script for On the Waterfront has been used in theatres large and small, throughout the country, to great success. It offers amateur and professional groups an opportunity to re-create Mr. Schulberg's indelible characters and highly charged moments. Helpful stage suggestions are included, and the author introduces the script with a reminiscence that is both poignant and informative. As with all Plays for Performance books, this one is presented with production values uppermost in mind.
Budd Schulberg, who wrote the original screenplay for the film On the Waterfront, is also the author of What Makes Sammy Run?, The Harder They Fall, Sparring with Hemingway, and Moving Pictures: Memories of a Hollywood Prince, among many other books. He lives on Long Island, New York.
