CLOSER TO HEAVEN
Book by Jonathan Harvey: Music & lyrics by Neil Tennant and Chris
Lowe (Pet Shop Boys) Arts Theatre, London - 31 May, 2001 - 13 October, 2001
The Night of your life
London's club-land. Suddenly
what was wrong seems right
Dave, young, sexy and fresh from Ireland, falls for beautiful, ambitious
Shell and streetwise drug dealer Mile End Lee. Billie Tricks, seventies
rock icon and now hostess of a glitzy London nightclub, is there when
they need to turn to "mother". Meanwhile the outrageous Bob Saunders,
pop manager extraordinaire, has his own plans for Dave. As fame
and fortune beckon, Dave quickly learns that things aren't always as straightforward
as then seem
