Cassandra Danz & Mary Fulham & Warren Leight
Published by Dramatists Play Service
Onstage, the High Heeled Women perform a tight knit, madcap comedy revue with songs and sketches; backstage, they struggle desperately to keep their act together
By play's end, they have lost everything, including their clothing, but they have learned the true meaning of success
"There is only one play in town with Bette Davis, Eleanor Roosevelt, and Iranian plate spinners. It's the same musical comedy that has a Busby Berkeley chorus line, Edith Piaf at her most maudlin, and a leopard-skinned jungle woman lamenting that her boyfriend thinks of her as Just Another Jane. The production is entitled Fame Takes A Holiday, and it puts all those zillion-dollar musicals uptown to shame" ~ WNYC Public Radio
