FABULOUS NOBODIES – LEE TULLOCH
The story revolves around the bubbly, fashion-obsessed Reality Nirvana Tuttle (nicknamed ‘Really’), an impoverished youth who struggles to be a trendsetter (a “somebody”) with the help of her sassy gay friend Freddie, her Audrey Hepburn-esque friend Phoebe, and her closet full of couture frocks, bold wigs, and kitschy 1980’s accessories. Working as a coveted doorgirl at the exclusive Less is More nightclub, Reality sees it as her solemn duty to help the seething mass of “nobodies” determine what is “in” and what is “out”, while she herself begs, borrows, and steals to reach the forefront of the ever-changing fashion wave.
