Summary
Jane Batts is an up-and-coming fashion designer who lives in a loft with her husband Rico, a successful artist. Until now, Rico has been paying most of the bills - but Jane has a chance to break out on her own with a series of bat shaped dress designs. However, she first must contend with her old college roommate, Pam, a self-proclaimed psychic who has arrived in New York to teach "telepathic lovemaking" - and plans to crash with Jane for awhile. Will Pam's "visions" reveal something more about Rico? A short comedy about two very different women, seeking success in the big city. Published in Off Off Broadway Festival Plays, 5th Series.
