Saffron is an absolute hoot! She lives in her own little world and isn’t going to allow anyone, including a renowned psychiatrist, burst her bubble of crazy. Jan Probst captures the narcissistic star quality beautifully in EVERYBODY LOVES A STAR. Lots of laughs in this short script.

Playing to the audience in such a meta fashion gives this look at a woman unable to let go of past fame a touching, yet surreal quality. She thinks she's playing to the crowd, the actor portraying her KNOWS she is playing to one, while the other character doesn't and the actor does at the same time. It's weirdly self-referential and all the more fascinating because of it. And while this is a fiction, just like in real life, some people are never able to move on. This is smart stuff.
