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 U.S. 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. ‘It’s 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.

After successful performances in San Francisco (Jan 31) and New York (Feb 27), Fe’s Book comes to Los Angeles on May 1, 2010 (Saturday) at 7:30 p.m. at the Garden Pavilion Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre International, 5930 Franklin Avenue, Hollywood CA 90028 (Corner of Franklin and Bronson). Tickets are $25 and are available by phone at (888) 886-7889, via text message to (323) 327-3483, by email to  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
