Two obsessive Mae West fans fall in love after meeting at her gravesite, and their romance is aided and abetted by none other than Miss West herself, in this sweet and quirky comedy by Claudia Shear. Two fascinating story lines then begin to interweave. One focuses on the banal lives and unlikely courtship of the two avid fans following their chance meeting at Mae's gravesite. The other serves as a brilliant counterpoint tracing the evolution of Mae Wests willful career from young vaudevillian upstart and overnight wisecracking sexy film star to the lonely isolation of her later years. The New York Times hailed the show as "wise, moving, nervy and exceptionally entertaining,"
