Miss Duvall will produce "Jack and the Beanstalk," "Rapunzel," "Sleeping Beauty" and "The Nightingale" for the national pay-TV service. Two tales are still to be announced. "Faerie Tale Theatre" is the brainchild of Miss Duvall, the actress best- known for playing Olive Oyl in "Popeye." Miss Duvall's idea of dramatiz­ ing the classic fairy tales stemmed from her pas­ sion for collecting antique illustrated books, a collec­ tion including hundreds of tales that Miss Duvall real­ ized would translate well to TV. Each hour-long pro­ gram promises quality family entertainment with major performers and top writing and directing talent. Miss Duvall approached her many contacts in the film and television industry to engage the on-air person­ alities in the project. "So much of this busi­ ness is connections. I just called my friends and asked them if they would 'be interested in a particu­ lar part," Miss Duvall said during a recent interview in Los Angeles. "If they know that a good writer and a good director are involved, they want to do if because they want the chance to work with other talented people." Already cast in "Jack Shelley Duvall and the Beanstalk" are D'ennis Christopher, Elliott Gould and Jean Staple- ton, while "Rapunzel" features Beverly D'An- gelo, Bernadette Peters and Christopher Reeve. The programs are slated to run throughout the spring season. "All of the stars love the idea of 'Faerie Tale Theatre' and the most unlikely personalities are coming to me about doing them," Miss Duvall said. "I'm talking to Lauren Hutton and Cher about possible future tales.. I think the idea appeals to everybody because the tales have been tried and tested for hundreds of years." Past. ".Faerie Tale Theatre" productions starred Robin Williams in "The Frog Prince" and Miss Duvall in "Rumpel- .stiltskin.'-' "I thought the 'Rumpel- stiltskin' role was too good to let go so I did it but it's very hard to pro­ duce and star at the same time," Miss Duvall said. "Right now I'm into the producing end of things." © 1983 Compulog
