Off the Cuff (UK) & King William Productions will present SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL I AM: the return of Jackie Susann, this August, as part of the 2008 New York International Fringe Festival – Fringe NYC. SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL I AM, starring American West End actress DEBORA WESTON & directed by PAUL DUBOIS, comes to New York, following sell-out performances in Edinburgh & London.

SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL I AM: the return of Jackie Susann is the sex, drugs & showbiz tale of Jacqueline Susann, from wannabe celebrity to the suffering behind the legend. The author of the original trashy 'blockbuster' Valley of the Dolls has returned to NYC to reveal ALL - her loves, life & the truth about being the first women to write honestly about sex. Direct from the UK, comes this wise-cracking, acclaimed one-person comedy about the Queen of the 60's; her rollercoaster ride to stardom, her sizzling books, her revolving bedroom door open to men, women & even her poodle, Josephine. She couldn't act & she couldn't sing, but her lack of talent did nothing to deter her ambition to become the biggest star of all!
 
DEBORA WESTON has appeared in numerous West End productions opposite major stars, including Up For Grabs (Madonna), The Seven Year Itch (Daryl Hannah ), Ben Elton's Popcorn, Chapter Two (Sharon Gless) & Serious Money. Her film work includes Patriot Games, Loch Ness, Kafka, Nightbreed, Possession, Blessed, Thunderbirds & Charlie & the Chocolate Factory.  PAUL DUBOIS is the founding Artistic Director of Off the Cuff Theatre Company.  He has produced 3 productions of the Time Out Critics' Choice play Swollen Tongues (plus the National Tour) & is an award winning director of over 10 productions of new theatre writing including  Scapegoat & The Book Of Liz . PAUL MINX has written Walking on Water, most recently seen in London, starring screen legend Susannah York. He is a graduate of Yale School of Drama.
