Saw a fun, little show on Theater Row in Hollywood today called "Haywire!" It's a take-off on one of the last movies Joan Crawford made -- a murder thriller titled "Beserk!"
In the movie Crawford played the Ringmistress of a small traveling circus. Performers in the circus start dying mid-performance and when the word gets out the box office goes through the roof as spectators come hoping to see the next gruesome death. In true show biz spirit, Crawford insists the show must go on after each incident and screams "Clowns!" to move it along.
At least I think so after seeing the play today. I've never actually seen the movie -- and now I want to rent it.
