WIT'S END
By Jefferson McClure

GENRE: Comedy, Musical, Romance
LOGLINE: When an incognito Hollywood producer visits a 1930s New York speakeasy, a down-on-his-luck writer cajoles his long-suffering best friend to pitch an improvised and fractured comedy of errors that unfolds in the lives of the workers and regulars of the club--only to be hijacked at every turn by his bitter ex-fiancée.

SYNOPSIS:

In the throes of the Great Depression, a desperately unemployable song‐and‐dance man discovers a serendipitous opportunity to pitch a story idea to a Hollywood producer who is visiting his favorite speakeasy. Unfortunately, his sweet romantic comedy is thrown into jeopardy when his bitter ex‐fiancée (and former writing partner) hijacks the story in order to wage a battle of romantic retrospection. As the lovers reopen old wounds and throw down new gauntlets, ambushed bystanders get tossed into the narrative, blurring the borders of time and space.
