Book excerpt: "Thirty-six hours in the lives of a bunch of unforgettable losers in a sleazy Burlesque House. Anything but what the name implies, the Majestic is a rundown burlesque theater housing some of the most fascinating characters who ever stood in the faded wings or sidled down a runway. They are has-beens and wood-bes, not starry-eyed youngsters, and they include a crippled chorus girl, and escaped lunatic, a sad bull dyke, assorted top and second bananas, a drunken contortionist, and various and tawdry strippers. The world of the Majestic Theater is a world of rigid structure unquestioned by most; its troupes are like peasants of the Middle Ages, accustomed to tedium, hardship and calamity. Living is hard -- they know that -- but life is sweet! Living through these hours with this wildly diverse cast of characters, sharing tragedy, pathos, comedy and drama with them, the reader will be educated, entertained, and almost hopfeul at the book's end."--Rear cover.
