Geniuses

Synopsis

A full length comedy for a cast of 5 males and 1 female.

The characters include the latest in a series of writers on the project, a sadistic set designer, a make-up artist specializing in wounds who is obsessed with Hemingway, a boy wonder 'auteur' director who creates chaos, and the producer's bimbo girlfriend who has been flown in to do a thirty second nude scene.

An Off-Broadway hit at New York's Playwright's Horizons.
