In the Boom Boom Room

Synopsis

A revised version from the author of Sticks and Bones and Hurlyburly turns his attention to the seedy underbelly of American life. Chrissy is a go-go dancer in the squalid “Boom Boom Room”. Resigned to a life populated by denizens offering little more than drugs, sex and violence, she searches for love and beauty against this backdrop of nihilistic hedonism. Her desperate need to survive at any cost offers a glimmer of hope amid the glare of broken neon.
