Vintage Theatre Presents FROST/NIXON

British talk-show host David Frost has become a laughingstock. Richard Nixon has just resigned from the Presidency in disgrace. One man is determined to save his career. The other wants to redeem his place in history. When these two titans come together for a series of interviews, it's clear that, on television, image is king, and only one of them can win.

46 years ago in January, 1973 former Nixon aides G. Gordon Liddy and James W. McCord Jr. are convicted of conspiracy, burglary and wiretapping in the Watergate incident. Five other men plead guilty, but mysteries remain. 18 months later the House Judiciary Committee will pass the first of three articles of impeachment, charging obstruction of justice, leading Richard Nixon to become the first U.S. president to resign his office. Vice President Gerald R. Ford assumes the country's highest office, and later, pardons Nixon of all charges related to the Watergate case.

Nixon continued to deny his Watergate complicity and seethes in exile. He sees David Frost as a soft touch interviewer who could be manipulated to suit his own ends. On May 4, 1977, forty-five million Americans watched.
