Can two people be together if they always say exactly what’s on their mind? That’s the question in this smutty but sweet film noir comedy for the stage. A private investigator can’t keep his thoughts, including his fantasies about the dames that come to his office, to himself. His poker game has gone to shit. Could there be someone out there for him in this ramshackle world of gumshoes, gangsters and broken promises? It will be a night of cynicism, femme fatales, musings on gaydar and the benefits of smoking, and general perversion.
