IT’S A FABULOUS LIFE
is a take off on the Christmas classic, IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE. The lead
character, Joe, is having a very rough holiday season, writing and starring in
"The Lavender Players" production of RANDOLPH THE RAINBOW REINDEER. Family
tensions and backstage backstabbing cause him to wish he had never been
born…GAY! An angel comes and shows him how things would be different if he
had been straight! Along the way he encounters buff boys (WARNING!
BRIEF ESKIMO NUDITY!) drag queens, unusual elves, even a heavenly
Gospel Choir, and he starts to look at being gay in a whole new way.  

Written by local author, David (THE
NATURE OF THE BEACH) Sexton,
FAB LIFE was originally a script to accompany
The
South Beach Gay Men’s Chorus 2001
Christmas Concert. So many people asked him about it that he was inspired to
flesh the concert script out into a real musical, complete with original songs
– lyrics by Mr. Sexton, music by Albert
(PAGEANT)
Evans with Eric Alsford and Andrew
Sargent.



Returning to direct the show is Broadway Director,
Robert Johanson. Mr. Johanson is
known for directing famous faces in familiar favorites. Having helmed the
renowned WIZARD OF OZ at Madison Square Garden with
Roseanne and the National Tour
starring Eartha Kitt and
Mickey Rooney, as well as FOLLIES
with Ann Miller, MAME with
Christine Ebersole, and ANYTHING
GOES with Chita Rivera, Mr.
Johanson is thrilled to be back in Florida with the show he helped make such a
success last year.



IT’S A FABULOUS LIFE opens at the Byron Carlyle Theater – 71^st
Street, Miami Beach on Thursday Nov. 25 at 8p with performances scheduled for
Fri. Nov. 26 at 8p, Sat. Nov. 27 at 7p and 10p and Sun. Nov. 28 at 4p. The
