The Return of Stewie Stein: a Play Stan Weisleder

Who is Stewie Stein? We all know him. He is all around us and part of us. He has over the years become an integral part of our culture and the American psyche. He is in fact the embodiment of, us. The "Return of Stewie Stein" takes place in the present, almost sixty years after his faked death. Stewie Stein, the wunderkind of the thirties and forties, the original anti-Christ of the entertainment industry has been secretly planning his comeback. Living on a secluded island off the coast of Belize near Punta Gorda at the mouth of the Monkey River with his faithful man-servant, Ramses Macalevy, Stewie Stein has had plenty of time to commiserate and plot his revenge on those broads, faggots and bean counters who now rule Hollywood, all to coincide with his return and one-hundredth birthday. But as fate would have it, the best laid plans of mice and men often go astray.
