Rosemary Drama Group Can You Ever Forgive Me? By Ian MacDonald

Can You Ever Forgive Me?

Lee Israel took New York by storm with her Hollywood biographies. Then it all crashed. Jobless, penniless, a massive vet bill for her beloved cat tipped her to crime as a forger of celebrity letters. Dorothy Parker, Noel Coward, Humphrey Bogart: she faked them all. And raked it in. But suspicions circled, and the FBI was closing in…

Outrageous, hilarious, touching and true—ish. Can you ever forgive her?
