In the show, Hollywood comes calling for a New York novelist. The offer is too good to refuse: Adapt the private detective protagonist of his books into a big-screen hero. The siren songs of Los Angeles are a dangerous temptation and while his movie plays out in black and white, his new life is all-too colorful. It is described in press materials as "a celebration of film noir and Hollywood in black & white and color." The production is designed by Robert Jones, with lighting by Howard Hudson, musical direction by Gareth Valentine, sound by Terry Jardine and Nick Lidster for Autograph, and choreography by Stephen Mear.
