Search for Tomorrow: In the past two years, Search has been on move, up and down the East Coast. The exteriors in the Wade Collins kidnapping in August 1977 were shot in Stony Brook, Eastern Long Island. Associate producer Robert Getz found the remote dirt road and old shed that Gail Starkey says had "ambience that reminded us of Henderson." The interiors were shot at the studio.
Stephanie Collins worked her wiles on John Wyatt in the magnificent ski resort setting of Woodstock, Vermont, not far from a home owned by executive producer Mary Ellis Bunim. The show used the Barnard, VT ski area and Sonnenberg Lodge during the week when the lodge was generally closed. Local skiers were rounded up for the background sequences in the shoot that lasted three days, from 6 a.m. to dusk. Starkey says only Stacy Moran (Suzie) knew how to ski beforehand. Lisa Peluso (Wendy), Maree Cheatham (Stephanie) and Val Dufour (John) all took lessons before going on location. Since then, Maree's become an enthusiast.
