Platinum Travel Club is an erotic-thriller that explores one woman's road from childhood loss to adult obsession. The abduction of her beautiful teenage sister (Caroline) leaves Sandie to survive a shattered family shrouded in deceit and denial. Despite this tragedy, she doesn't let anything get in the way of building a successful career – neither a neglectful mother nor a dominating father. Switching between past and present, the story unfolds against a backdrop of Sandie's involvement in a business travelers' sex club as she confronts the ghosts from her damaged childhood.
Anne Beaumont directs the production, which features Christiane Amorosia, Andrew Platner, Joan Schumacher, Kevin G.Shinnick, Tony Neil, and Anne Winkles.

"A bewitching bedtime story for grown-ups...a psycho-sexual cauldron wherein fantasy and deprivation merge and combust. Egloff's language alternates be-tween the unadorned cadences of the workaday world and the lyric fancies of poets, her stage pictures shift from an implacable reality to florid dream states." —NY Newsday.
NOTE: Were we to use a movie rating system we would label this PG-13 as there are both violent and sensual moments and the shooting of a gun onstage.
