The Veiled Screen
T6227887
Italian "clowntertenor" Ernesto Tomasini returns having thrilled audiences with a sell-out 'Under Construction' season last year. This time, once again directed by Amit Lahav (Gecko), he cavorts in his own new musical extravaganza that explores the ins and outs of gay characters in cinema history: From the early "invisible years", through the negative stereotypes of the 60s, to the wholesome depictions of modern day Hollywood. Fred Astaire's butler is in love. Doris Day discovers Rock Hudson's secret. Norman Bates enters the shower. "AIDS victims" exit the scene. And the Oscar goes to... everyone's favourite next door neighbour, or the two cowboys kissing on a mountain? Will there be a happy ending? Tomasini trills and thrills combining his trademark 4 octave range and Italian comedy style with celluloid memories and astonishing revelations. This is an all singing, all dancing, all laughing cinematic romp in Technicolor that you will want to see again and again! So, sit back: it is time to reach for the popcorn, as the lights dim, the curtain is drawn and the music starts. Welcome to the Movies. We'll have a gay old time!
