HOLLYHOOD

last night, MR. ROURKE took me to see the funniest, smartest play on broadway. i embarrassed myself by laughing so hard. it has all the elements that pique my particular interests (the truth about hollywood, a spot-on, witty script and full frontal nudity by "darlene's boyfriend on roseanne"). it's unfair to describe it as "the brokeback of broadway", but you kinda get the idea.

this morning, i woke up and it was still ringing loudly in my consciousness, especially the performance of JULIE WHITE. oh dear GOD, that woman tore up the scenery. i just finished reading a fantastic book called I,FATTY, the fictionalized autobiography of ROSCOE "FATTY" ARBUCKLE by JERRY STAHL. it, too, uncovers the underbelly of show business in a similar way the DOUGLAS CARTER BEANE play does, so i felt like i was watching a companion piece to the book.
