Synopsis

A campy diva who claims Autie Mame as her chief insiration, Alexa is a self-described promoter of British rock stars who's now it the market for an even greater dose of exploitation. When she sees a magazine photo of a young gay novelist named Evan Wyler, Alexa is certain she's found her prey. Tracking him down, Alexa wines and dines Evan, buys him a new wardrobe and teaches him style. All she asks in return is that Evan write a screenplay of her life, a life she promises is "too entrancing, almost even for me." Alexa flashes a $1000 bill and Evan agrees to the deal, visions of fame and fortune dancing in his head. What Evan doesn't know is that Alexa is not at all who she says she is and his life is about to change in ways he never thought possible. --- from book's dustjacket. originally performed with 3 men and 3 women with some actors performing multiple parts.
