It’s 1976, and a time of ever-changing social mores and show business trends. Harry Reems, the charismatic and egocentric star of Deep Throat leaves New York City (and hopefully, legal peril) behind him for the sunshine and stardom that Hollywood, California offers. But will dark clouds resurface once he reaches la-la land, or will old friends come to the rescue?
Join us for a workshop production of this brand new musical
