Emily
by Stephen Metcalfe
Synopsis
This brilliant comedy by the author of Vikings , Sorrows and Sons and The Incredibly Famous Willy Rivers dares to take a politically incorrect stance about successful women.
Emily is a stockbroker who mixes it up with the boys and always comes out on top.
She is as cynical and ruthless as any man in her position until she meets a caring, sensitive actor who doesn't fall for her manipulative ruses.
This nice guy with no money sees the girl inside the ruthless yuppie who may or may not exist.
Press Reviews
"Glorious...sparkling Comedy with bite to it. The title character is a gold mine of a role for an actress."
— The San Diego Tribune
"A real winner....A bravura balancing act right on the edge of sentimentality, finally and triumphantly crystalline in its emotional honesty....A triumph."
— The San Diego Union
