Some of the actors he imported for the venture were Margaret Truman and Farley Granger ("Sweet Bird of Youth"), Bert Lahr ("Harvey"), Chester Morris ("The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial"), David Wayne ("Send Me No Flowers")and Burt Brinckerhoff ("Five-Finger Exercise"). Among the first season's apprentices were Gary Houston, Harriet Hyman and Dennis Metnick.
