Wild Side Story
''Wild Side Story'' is a parody musical that originated in 1973 as a drag show on the gay scene of Miami Beach, soon developed there into an underground happening for mixed audiences, and up until 2004 was performed hundreds of times in Florida, Sweden, California and Spain.
==Background==
Descending from a musical family,〔''Expressen'' (July 19, 1953) p. 3〕〔''TV Guide'' (June 6, 1959) p. A-38〕〔''Dagens Nyheter'' (September 27, 1985) p. 45〕 Swedish-American producer, author and entertainment director Lars Jacob〔Betty Skawonius (August 18, 1993) ''Dagens Nyheter'' p B03〕〔Eva Norlén (July 21, 1997) ''Aftonbladet'' p. 37〕 went to Florida at the age of 22 to work as a desk clerk at the Doral Hotel, and there part-time also continued his recent Swedish career〔''VeckoRevyn'' Stockholm (September 1, 1971) p. 20 "''discjockeyn Lars Jacob ... ledande man bland huvudstadens innefolk'' (disc jockey Lars Jacob ... leading man of the capital city’s in-crowd)"〕 as a disc jockey.〔Perry Fulkerson (November 11, 1971) ''Evening Independent / The Scene'' pp. 1D, 14D-15D〕〔Herbert R. Hunt's (a.k.a. Johnny Rebel) ''Open Mike'' (November 1, 1971) WLCY Radio〕 With Logan Carter and a handful of young Cuban refugees who were doing drag in Miami Beach〔〔Facebook (album introduction ) (2013) by CabarEng〕 he created a stage show which did a campy parody of ''West Side Story'', but also included independent material. ''Wild Side Story'' first opened officially at the Ambassador III on August 8, 1973,〔 and by 1974 moved down 22nd Street to the new Stonewall of Miami Beach〔Kim Ekemar (January 6, 1976) ''Wild Side Story at Showcase Alexandra's Stockholm'' (playbill registered at National Library of Sweden) p. 8〕 run by Larry Boxx.〔(Article ) by Jim Burroway in ''Box Turtle Bulletin'' 2015-07-02〕
In 1975 Lars Jacob went back to Sweden and produced shows for one of the earliest Stockholm nightclubs〔Alexandra Charles (1986) ''Alexandra on the Rocks'' ISBN 91-7684-105-7 pp. 60-61〕 Alexandra’s, thus introducing drag shows to Sweden.〔Kalle Westerling (2006) ''La Dolce Vita'' ISBN 91-85505-15-3 pp. 20-22〕 In 1976 he brought his ''Wild Side Story'' to the stage there with local people,〔 since a European tour, which Danny La Rue〔''Island Connections'' Los Cristianos (April 7, 2000) p. 2〕 had tried to help him set up, had failed to materialize with the Florida cast because of their refugee status.〔 A few months later he went back to the United States and a front desk job at The Beverly Hills Hotel.〔 On the side he again built up an underground ensemble which intermittently played ''Wild Side Story'', with a few adjustments to Californian culture, at alternating venues from 1977 until the beginning of the 1980s. In 1976 his basic plot of ''Wild Side Story'' had been registered with the Writers Guild of America West by Jacob and business partner Richard Max Mersky of Mimical Productions, and in California they called their show a ''mimical lampoon''.〔Rob Stevens (October 26, 1979) ''Data Boy Pacific Southwest'' West Hollywood p. 76〕
Until 2004 the show was performed more than 500 times in Florida,〔 Stockholm,〔 Los Angeles〔Michael Kearns (November 30, 1979) ''San Diego Update / L.A. Life'' p. 13〕 and Spain,〔 since 1997 called a ''mimical humoresque''.〔 Numbers from ''Wild Side Story'' have also been done by Emil Eikner and CabarEng in recent years in the Stockholm cabarets ''CaCa Bleu''〔''Stockholm City'' (March 22, 2010) p. 2〕 (2009-2010) at the Lillienhoff Palace and ''ÄngelCab'' (2013),〔YouTube (video ) (2013) of ''All Trouble'' and ''Fever'' from Wild Side Story as done in ''ÄngelCab'' at Michelangelo〕 and when that group went on tour to New York City,〔Metropolitan Room (online listing ) (October 2011)〕 Washington DC〔YouTube (video ) (2011) at 17:14 of ''Fever'' from Wild Side Story as done in ''Cabaret Large-A-Cup'' at Madam's Organ〕 and Annapolis with ''Cabaret Large A-Cup'' (2011).〔Facebook (album ) (2011) by CabarEng〕 On its 40th anniversary in 2013 the whole ''Wild Side Story'' was played twice again in a 17th century cellar cave dedicated to Michelangelo's ''David'' in the Old Town of Stockholm.〔〔''Metro'' Stockholm (August 2, 2013) p. 18〕〔''Aftonbladet/Nöjesbladet'' (August 2, 2013) p. 25〕
