She was a siren of the shadows. A Woman of the World in a dark city of violence and terror, the Film Noir Femme Fatale did what she had to do – scratching a dime in the Land of Missed Opportunity. Now hip-per than ever, everybody loves the Femme Fatale. Men want to have her; women want to be her.

Jazz vocalist SANDRA LAWRENCE wants to have her all-American apple pie and eat it too. She’s always wanted to be a Femme-Fatale, Film Noir’s most glamorous by-product, but she has been concealing an unhealthy obsession. How long can she conceal her penchant for baking? How will piano player RUSSELL CHURNEY react to her sordid affair with a “Kitchen Aid” food mixer? And what will happen when the tabloid press discovers she prefers gingham to satin? As the songs get as steamy as her kitchen, Sandra is forced to make a choice between the Femme Fatale and her nemesis - Gingham Girl – the “Doris Day” character who always somehow manages to snatch the hero away in the final reel. It’s a good job director BARB JUNGR has done her Hollywood homework. At least Sandra will stay glamorous to the death – a classic death, to make the angels weep….

So far, each performance of The Lonely Fate of the Femme Fatale has proved a scramble for tickets. Despite the unassailable fact that nearly every Femme-Fatale dies, audiences find themselves roaring with laughter throughout, as Sandra demonstrates everything from a step-by-step guide to singing a torch song to the correct way to die in the movies.
