It's the dream you always wished would come true: A movie star falls in love
with you, and on top of being gorgeous on-screen, he's smart, funny, and
chivalrous. It could happen, right? It does to Cyndi Freeman in her
one-woman show, which is, no doubt, heavily based on her real life. Why do
we think this? Because the other events Cyndi Freeman describes in her show
all can be found in her program bio. Though she's engaging, Freeman is a
little too perky and a little too smiley, and her dresses are a little too
tight. She seems to be trying too hard when she teasingly sticks out her
tongue at the audience to make us feel included. But her story is fun and
real (one assumes), her excitement is contagious, and we found ourselves
caring about her career and her love life. After all, she's dating a movie
star.
