Helen Raptis Stars In I'LL EAT YOU LAST This Month
triangle productions! is ready for a brand new year and to start it off we have chosen a hit Broadway play entitled I'll Eat You Last.
The show stars Helen Raptis, host of KATU Channel 2's AM-NW - in this one-person show about legendary Hollywood agent to the stars, Sue Mengers.
Sue has just managed to get the largest payload any actor (male or female) had gotten in 1981 for her friend and client - Barbra Streisand of $4.5 million!
This show has a lot of insight dirt on major Hollywood stars all in the comfort of Sue's living room. Wanna join her in some dish? She'll be happy to share!
January 31 through February 16. www.trianglepro.org
Some have asked what is the show I'll Eat You Last about...well, in 1981, Sue Mengers husband Jean-Claude Tramont was directing his first REAL Hollywood film. Gene Hackman who hadn't been considered a leading man was to be the lead. Sue stepped in and got her friend Barbra Streisand (even before Barbra dropped the "A") to star alongside Gene Hackman. Sue negotiated the largest contract of any actor in Hollywood 4.5 MILLION dollars!!!!! Even with Barbara, it flopped - earning only 4.4 million. Did Sue represent Barbra after that?
