Evan Wyler is a gay twenty-something New York writer savoring the success of his debut novel.  Defined by the media as the "hot, young, thing-of-the-moment," Evan captures the attention of Alexa Vere de Vere, a black-clad woman of mystery who's made the world of celebrity her home.  In fact, it's her religion.

The cast will feature Jonathan Bock, Melissa Jones Briggs, Ben Fisher, Stefanie Goldstein, Juliet Heller, Dene Larson

His works include the screenplay of To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar, and several plays including The Country Club and The Little Dog Laughed, which was nominated for the 2007 Tony Award for Best Play, and As Bees in Honey Drown, which ran at New York's Lucille Lortel Theatre in 1997 and won an Outer Critics Circle Award. Beane also wrote the book for Xanadu, a stage musical adaptation of the 1980 film.
