Excellent capture of this year's Hollywood Bowl production. Three songs were cut from the production: " Never Say Good Luck on Opening Night", " Where Did We Go Right?

Psycho Beach Party (1987-07. Off-Broadway. Charles Busch (Chicklet Forrest), Robert Carey (Yo-Yo), Judith Hansen (Dee Dee), Andy Halliday (Provoloney), Arnie Kolonder (Star Cat), Theresa Marlowe (Bettina Barnes). Written by Charles Busch. " The play gleefully defies logic as it subverts clean-cut Hollywood stereotypes. Kanaka, the local surfing hero who won't give Chicklet the time of day, becomes Ann's first groveling conquest, while Yo-Yo and Provoloney, Malibu Beach's prize beefcake, fall in love with each other in the middle of rehearsing a heterosexual seduction. Mr. Busch's dialogue offers an amusing pastiche of vintage hepcat slang and whiny love-comic-book cliché s spiced with dashes of pure smut. The fun culminates in a denouement whose traumatic revelations are lifted directly from Alfred Hitchcock's " Marnie. " Presented at the Player's Theatre in New York. Filmed using one camera on a tripod. Some slight generational loss. A-)
