Synopsis: | 'When Terry Swanton gains art-house kudos for his small Australian independent film, he gets summoned to Los Angeles by Jimmy Fleishberg, the Greatest Independent Movie Producer In Hollywood. Jimmy's got Big Ideas for Terry's new screenplay, and La La Land is a crazy place. Nutty foreign directors, egotistical cult-ridden movie stars, drug dealers with three-picture development deals and abandoned Aussie TV actors are just part of Terry's sometimes absurd journey into the dream factory known as LA. (Los Angeles).' Source: www.darlinghursttheatre.com - Information extracted from AustLit: http://www.austlit.edu.au | |||||

Synopsis: | Trevor and Kim are two young men on the verge of being handed more wealth, power and prestige than is commonly imaginable - but can they handle it? Or is there truth in the old adage: The first generation acquires it, the second generation builds it. . . and the third generation f**ks it up! Watch and laugh as fortunes are risked, secrets exposed, unspeakable acts performed and lives ruined. . . and feel a whole lot better about your own position on the rich and powerful list. Topical, scandalous, very, very funny - and soooo Sydney. Greed is the new black. | |||||
