| Fe's Book comes to Los Angeles!
Fe's Book! If the name sounds
familiar and you're wondering if the author is spelling-challenged, don't
fret. Fe's Book is the latest project of our favorite parody paramour - Fe
de los Reyes. This time, she does her inimitable take on a topic of truly
worldwide proportion --- Fe's Book is a collection of spiels, spoofs and
song parodies in typical Fe fashion, about the social networking phenomenon
and the world 'wild' web.
Fe is no stranger when it
comes to making light of things bigger than herself, that she clearly does
not understand or at least pretends not to. As you may know, Fe performed
in 'Amerikana,' a comedy musical based loosely on her life story. This musical
told a tale about uprooting from Manila and coming to America, in search
of fame and fortune and finding --- a sister that she didn't know she had.
If that wasn't remarkable enough, Fe also portrayed illegal immigration --
hardly a topic to poke fun or sing about ---- based on her own experience
with her lapsed immigration status in the 90s. Fe found an appreciative audience
in no less than the US government, who in 1995, granted her permanent residency
status in the US as a person of Extraordinary Ability. She became a citizen
in 2002.
The idea for Fe's Book came
after a performance in Germany late last year, when Fe took a short break
to visit family and friends in Europe. Between good food, great company and
endless wine, Fe contemplated how ubiquitous and indispensable Facebook had
become. One can find practically anyone, friends and enemies alike, and keep
in touch. 'Its TOO funny', she remarked, on how much her life depended
on her connectedness via email and cellphone and the tragedy that ensues
when one's batteries run out with no charger in sight. There and then, the
first page was turned for Fe's Book. Watch out! We hope the Internet is as
robust as the experts claim.
