...been a rough day for Valerie the Valley Girl (Geena Davis), manicurist at the Curl Up and Dye hair salon. Her icky beau Dr. Ted (Charles Rocket) hasn't made love -- to her, anyway -- in two weeks! "At the rate we're having sex," she pouts becomingly, "we may as well be married already." She has discovered Ted in a compromising costume with another woman and responded by trashing their condo: microwaving his football, toasting his funny cigarettes in the VCR, dropping his gold watch in the Disposall.

Cottingham's first-act sarcasm is brutally funny, and the show moves along nicely under Brent Eller's direction. The plot is perfectly symmetrical. Will Susan choose reality with a family that doesn't love her, bland Marsala wine and a black lunch table?

...that the visitor is the star. Bobby-soxed employees clamor for your autograph, demand to be photographed with your family of four (who have paid about $110 for a day at the park). In the SuperStar Television show, you guest-star in ingeniously integrated scenes from I Love Lucy, Today, The Ed Sullivan Show or General Hospital. On the 90-min. Studio Tour you don a yellow slicker and become skipper of the good ship Miss Fortune, buffeted by wind and water. As a "Foley artist" in the Monster Sound Show, you desperately improvise sound effects to accompany a comedy...
