Part shameless exposé of the darker side of the California sunshine, part comedy of manners set in the gears of the 1930s Hollywood dream machine, with familiar echoes in our current celebrity obsessed culture, and in part an homage to the fast talking films of the era, Unmentionables is in turns bitingly funny and heart wrenching, as LA power brokers and those who depend on them for their lives maneuver to get what they want while trying to keep their secrets secret.

I saw a wonderful production by Nylon Fusion Theatre Company called "Unmentionables". They close this Saturday so go see it before!! It's a brand new play set in Hollywood in 1937.
