Program Note
Leo Macias is a highly successful, although terribly embarrased, author of romance novels who religiously guards her pseudonym. Tired of the flimsy Cinderella story, the growing despair in her work mirrors her faltering private life. Her publishers, however, threaten to disclose her identity if she doesn′t produce yet another best-seller. Her marriage is disintegrating and her friends and family no longer provide the emotional support she requires. Exploring romantic lies and mid-life paradoxes, this tragic-comedy stylishly criss-crosses fantasy with reality.
