Introduced as a sequel to 'Addictions: Bears and Bitches', '97 or Sex and Sensibility' follows the trajectories of a bunch of characters, as they survive (just) the pitfalls of that highly significant year, 1997; the year of the coming of Blair, and the going of Diana. Again we meet the transatlantic couple, Jon and Ben both involved in music; Celia, the operatic Diva, questioning whether at 50, a woman can still be beautiful; the arrogant, bitchy Jeremy, still Director of the British National Opera; Harold, camp as hell, political manipulator extraordinaire, with a foot in both camps; Adelina and Tallulah, lipstick lesbians and movers and shakers respectively in music and law; and, finally, that handsome couple Zac and Armando, the Rabbi and the monk, who hold the very grandest of New York weddings, long before gay marriage was even a thing. How they negotiate the pitfalls of that perilous year remains to be seen, as they prepare to exit the tragic twentieth century and anticipate, in fear and hope, the looming millennium.
