Synopsis

Blame It On Beckett

Blame It On Beckett $10.99

John Morogiello

Published by Samuel French Inc

2 Male 2 Female

Heidi Bishop is a wide-eyed dramaturgy intern, eager to better American drama!

What she encounters instead is an endless stream of bad scripts by desperate playwrights and an office filled with cynicism and turf battles, led by her bitterly hilarious boss Jim Foley

When Heidi's efforts to improve things run into unintended consequences, she is forced to confront idealism with reality to save her career, reputation, and relationships

"A little gem of a comedy. Morogiello clearly knows his milieu. He even gives himself a glancing mention, as a persistent supplicant whose scripts Jim tosses straight in the trash" ~ Sandy MacDonald, TheatreMania

"Witty. It specializes in the sort of insider's winking jokes that make audiences feel clever" ~ Frank Scheck, The New York Post

HEIDI BISHOP - 25, an intern in the literary department
