During the seventies, the adult film industry went through a very strange period of trying to make adult films with actual plots and dialogue. The attempts, to put it mildly, were laughable. The 'acting' was, at best, wooden and the dialogue ranged the gamut from stilted to repetitive. During this period, which has been dubbed 'The Golden Age of Porn' or 'Porno Chic', came some big box office successes. Among the biggest hits of this era was the film 'Debbie Does Dallas', released in 1978, close to the end of the period. By the early eighties, home video effectively ended the era where people went to movie theaters to see porn.

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING by William Shakespeare, produced by The Baron's Men and currently playing at The Curtain Theatre is a stellar achievement for the veteran company.

After the successful publication of author Christopher Waters' 'Sudden Shadow' in December 2012, he makes a powerful comeback with the release of his new adrenaline-pumping mystery-thriller, 'Extreme Eviction.' The plotting is irresistibly tangled, the narrative is paced to maximize the chill factor. Add to this a bunch of memorable characters, and it is a rich thick broth of action and mystery coming to a fine boil in Waters' new outing in crime fiction.
