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 | ||||
