CGiii Comment
A heavyweight writer delivers a lightweight monstrosity.
Over-written, over-acted - it definitely sends the wrong message to those interested in a life in the theatre.
It tries hard to be bitchy - but, bitchiness without humour is just plain malice - not exactly difficult to achieve.
Quite vile and, ultimately, pointless...to the point of un-entertaining.
No trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
An actress attended by homosexual dresser. But...who are actors when the show is over?
