LAFPI

“As Good As Gold” by Marilyn Anderson.

Three female screenwriters, frustrated with the sexism and glass ceilings they encounter in Hollywood, decide to collaborate on a commercially surefire macho action epic screenplay with a studly hero. Now, they have a script. But, they’re women. How will they get a studio to buy it? They hire a young fellow to be their front. He will purport to be the author of their screenplay. Sure enough, their front/impostor becomes the toast of Hollywood, commanding millions of dollars in asking price for future scripts.

Where does all this leave the original three women screenwriters?

Directed by Roger K. Weiss. Presented by Theatre 40.

Thurs.-Sat. at 8:00, Sun. at 2:00. The performance on Friday, September 17 will begin at 7:00 p.m.
