A
searing
portrait
of
a
young
dancer’s
descent
into
hell—extensively
revised
and
returned
to
the
two-act
structure
originally
intended
by
the
author.Chrissy,
a
bright
and
not-quite-innocent
woman
with
visions
of
a
career
as
a
dancer,
finds
herself
in
the
Boom
Boom
Room,
a
disco/bar
in
Philadelphia
meant
to
be
her
first
step
on
the
road
to
stardom.
Instead,
she
finds
herself
fighting
to
keep
her
dreams
intact
amid
the
anesthetic
sex
and
stimulation
that
surround
her,
the
psychological
residue
of
her
parents’
betrayals,
and
the
bizarre
pack
of
suitors
who
follow
her.
In
a
desperate
search
for
love
and
hope,
Chrissy
careens
from
the
seductive
mistress
of
ceremonies
at
the
Boom
Boom
Room
to
the
earnestly
friendly
gay
man
next
door
to
a
brutally
passionate
lover.In
its
compassionate
look
at
Chrissy’s
living
nightmare,
In
the
Boom
Boom
Room
is
a
piercing
look
at
a
society
dangerously
close
to
our
own
lives,
and
a
drama
that
captures
both
our
hearts
and
our heads.
