March 2004

Written by: Billy Van Zandt and Jane Milmore

Cast (l-r): Jeff Kucukistipanoglu, Josie Thomas, Glenn Wakeley, Deborah Andrews, Arthur Garrone, Heather Price, Paul Petrucci, Melissa George

SYNOPSIS:
Laura, who is married to Arthur, is having an affair with Sandy, one of Arthur's employees.  Sandy is a nervous fellow who is trying to work up the nerve to ask Arthur for a raise during the party.  Arthur, who owns his own company, struggles with the temptation to have an affair with Babette, a man-chaser who works for him and wants desperately to get him alone and undressed.  Stu is a degenerate who's goal for the evening is to consume massive quantities of drugs and alcohol.  Peg is a sweet person who is struggling to overcome her self-image and “fit in.”  The Big El is a not-too-talented Elvis impersonator who has been hired as the party entertainer, and Peg's mother is an elderly woman who just needs to use the bathroom.  Throughout the evening these folks make their way in and out of the bathroom to gossip, snoop, tell secrets, meet lovers, indulge in degenerate behavior, argue, seduce … in other words, everything but use the porcelain facilities!
