...caught with their pants down. The lapse is easily explained, considering the six were not scouts at all but rather adult strippers bedecked as scouts for an act staged by Sir Elton John. Performing at a benefit for the gay-rights group Stonewall before an audience that included the wife of Prime Minister Tony Blair, John sang as the dancers stripped to their skivvies. The crowd seemed entertained, but the head of Britain's Scouting organization was not amused. In a letter to the show's organizers, he labeled the performance "deplorable" and demanded an apology.

...Abaire, who, not surprisingly, cites Ionesco and Feydeau as influences. He was born in South Boston, as David Abaire, to "very regular blue-collar folk" (back then, Dad sold fruit from a truck; Mom worked on a circuit-board assembly line). After Sarah Lawrence College, where he met his wife, actress Chris Lindsay, he honed his craft at New York City's Juilliard School Playwright's Program. What if he scores in Hollywood? "The movie stuff will pay my rent," he says. "But if I want my words to remain as is, I'll stay in the theater...
