Meet the Love Junkies : Ariela the Diva, Omar the King of Tango at the end of his career, Robert, the Silicon Valley Lawyer with a secret, Danilo, the "Mama's Boy" from Italy, Gio the Dreamer, TJ and R.J., two San Francisco Hipsters: one a "Buffon" and the other wanting to be the "Perfect Son", and the Diva's entourage : Bellissima, the exquisite "Principal Dancer" with her Brioso, the talented "Musician and Principal Dancer", and Fernando, the "Bartender and Dancer" with plenty of attitude, and a soft spot for her Dance companion Mirella, a true "fashionista". Love Junkies is a Broadway style original musical celebrating Love in many of its aspects, playful, romantic, intimate, erotic, seductive, fatherly, friendly, committed, uncommitted. Love Junkies characters crave it, chase it, discover it, cope with the lack or loss of it in their own way, some are able to channel it into love for something else. Loss and tragedy spin the Love Junkies into their "dark night of the soul" experience that allows them to get in touch with their shadow parts, and also bring up a sense of compassion for themselves and others, even in unexpected moments and circumstances. The Love as Life Force wants to live and move forwards even in Love Junkies.
