Original Screenplays
As a writer who specializes in comedy, I know exactly what’s funny and what isn’t. Writing comedy is no small task. With my help, this task will become much easier (and funnier too!).
Siblings Julie and James Williamson attempt to retrieve their inheritance, finding that they must run Cornshuck Community Theater for a year to claim it. Meeting a variety of weird people and awkwardly offensive situations, the LA-natives begin to feel a bit over their heads.
Julie struggles in finding non-white actors to play Jackie Robinson. Meanwhile, James joins the Wu-Tang Clan. At least, that's what he thinks.
When attempting to rescue her husband from her former boss, an ex-assassin learns that she truly can’t outrun her past.
