Luci LaBang is a star: For decades this flamboyant drag artist has cast a spell over screen and stage. Now she's the leading lady in a smash hit musical. But as time takes its toll- Luci fears her star is beginning to dim. When Luci's co-star meets with a mysterious accident- a new ingenue shimmers onto the scene: Luda- whose fantastical beauty and sinister charm infatuate Luci immediately . . . and who bears a striking resemblance to Luci herself at a much younger age. Luda begs Luci to share the secrets of her stardom and to reveal the hidden tricks of her trade. For Luci LaBang is a mistress of the Glamour- a mysterious discipline that draws on sex- drugs- and the occult for its trancelike- transformative effects. But as Luci tutors her young prot?g?e- their fellow actors and crew members begin meeting with untimely ends. Now Luci wonders if Luda has mastered the Glamour all too well . . . and exploited it to achieve her dark ambitions.
