In this re-imagining of Moliere's The Misanthrope, a group of elite Gay men in late Twentieth-Century Manhattan are like the froo-froo dogs that are leashed on the sidewalks of Chelsea -- they are pretty and polished and pampered, yet can easily regress to wild animals as they bitch and snap at each others' well-heeled heels. At a gathering in the loft of a dashing and handsome Broadway star who is Top Dog in their circle, many suitors jockey for pack position with an eye fixed on his bedroom door. But can they survive the acid tongue of the star's one true love; a vicious critic who is frustrated with life, the theatre, and his relationship with a man who is committed to love but avoids commitment?
