A SCREENING OF FRANK’S PLACE
October 11 at 7:30pm
In NOCCA's Freda Lupin Memorial Hall
Featuring actor Tim Reid and creator Hugh Wilson
Q&A with Reid, Wilson, and Lolis Elie, moderated by Poppy Tooker, followed by a reception
When writer and NOCCA alum Lolis Elie and HBO's Treme first gave us the opportunity to
screen episodes of the short-lived, much-loved sitcom Frank's Place in 2010, the response from the public was
overwhelming. Though the series about a reluctant New Orleans restaurateur only lasted for a
year, locals remember it fondly. Join us in NOCCA's Freda Lupin Memorial Hall for a few more episodes – and be sure
to stick around for some Q&A with lead actor, Tim Reid, the series'
creator, Hugh Wilson, Lolis Elie, and moderator Poppy Tooker (another proud NOCCA
alum!). Reception to follow with desserts by NOCCA Culinary Arts students and coffee from French Market Coffee.
This screening is part of a larger celebration of NOCCA"s new Culinary Arts program called ART OF THE FEAST. To learn more, visit www.ArtOfTheFeast.com.
About Frank's Place
During the 1987-1988 television season, Tim Reid and Hugh Wilson
brought CBS viewers as close to New Orleans as any television series had
ever done with Frank’s Place. In the first episode, Frank
Parrish, a reluctant restaurateur, plans to sell Chez Louisiane, the
family restaurant he inherited. But soon he finds himself elbow deep in
food, family debt, and eccentric characters.
The show won widespread praise for its combination of comedy, drama,
and light-hearted plots peppered with discussions of weighty issues. “I
wanted to provide America with a glimpse of the black American culture
that so rarely is seen on TV,” Reid said.
Despite critical acclaim, the show was off the air after only one
season. The show’s 22 episodes are not available for home viewing.
“Having been associated with “Frank’s Place” is one of the most
important and fulfilling segments of my career,” Reid said. “I remember
meeting the late [CBS chairman] William Paley, who was a fan of the
show, and saying to him, ‘thanks for creating a medium which allowed me
the opportunity to reveal a slice of my culture.’
“He smiled and replied, ‘No, thank you.’ I will never forget that
moment,” Reid said.
Proceeds from this event will benefit the New Orleans Center for
Creative Arts.
