Me & Robert Mckee

Synopsis

Billy, a writer, is reliant on teaching scriptwriting for a living and the bottle for oblivion; his sense of self-worth is teetering on the edge.

When Mac, his best friend, a banker and would-be producer, offers him a screenplay to write, the offer is not all it seems...

"Anyone can write...

Writing is the great free market of artistic expression.

There's no exams to pass, no subs to pay, no fees, no licence.

It's open slather.

Entirely self-regulatory.

You can do whatever you please.

Like banking."

A play for anyone who has tried to write a screenplay -- or teach creative writing...
