Synopsis

Characters: 4 male, 2 female 2 Interiors Maestro Vito De Angelis, an egomaniacal but charming conductor, is under contract to a major publisher to deliver his autobiography.

The publisher has paid a huge advance and Vito has just fired his fifth ghost writer.

The publisher sends pretty Iris Peabody, knowing that Vito is a sucker for the ladies, to gain his cooperation as she ghost writes the book.

The stratagem works, a fact that distresses Mrs. Vito, former opera star Rachel Garla
