Comedian Sheba Mason (Jackie Mason’s daughter), is featured as Marla - the Transgender Hooker in this Madcap Musical-Comedy of Errors, where love, lust, ex-wives, and transgender role confusion collide in the story of Mel Schwartz, a homophobic middle-aged man, living in Miami Beach in 1986. Mel (Peter Librach), is stunned to discover that his beautiful mistress of the past five years used to be a man. If that wasn't enough, it turns out his transgender mistress(Mason), is actually the long-lost child of his lifelong friend, Milty (David R. Gordon). When Milty finds out that his son is now a daughter and that Mel's been shtupping her, chaos ensues. They are joined by Canadian singing sensation Cheryll Rae as Ruthy, Jerry Weinberg as Lester, and Ginger Reiter as Mae West. This fun new raunchy bawdy show is penned by Ginger Reiter (The Jackie Mason Musical, Solomon’s 700 Wives the Musical). The musical’s original score includes “Boney-Assed Whore” as well as the poignant “Call It Love”.
