Showboy

Aroview: An effective mockumentary follows real-life screenwriter Taylor being 'fired' from SIX FEET UNDER, and shifting to Las Vegas where he attempts, with no background experience or skills, to became a stage dancer or 'showboy'.

Playing cleverly on whether its events are 'true' or 'faked', with Taylor appearing to be trying to deceive dir. Heymann that his endless unsuccessful auditions for dance jobs are really 'research' for a new series of SIX FEET UNDER, this comes across as an insider's dry comic fancy. If finally a little too flimsy to be truly memorable as satire, it certainly provokes some chuckles at the strange sub-culture of Las Vegas entertainment.
