Join us for this hilarious story of David O. Selznick, Victor Fleming and Ben Hecht as they attempt to write the screenplay for Margaret Mitchell's beloved "Gone With The Wind." Production has started on the movie but Selznick halts it and sequesters Fleming and Hecht in his office for seven days. Their task: create an entire screenplay in one week - subsisting solely on bananas, coffee and peanuts! The highly efficient Secretary to Selznick, Miss Peabody, capably keeps things flowing. The pressure is on and as the days and minutes click by - anything can happen.
Directed by Meghann K. Humphreys, the cast consists of Daniel Rich as Selznick; David Ely as Fleming; Duane Ellis as Hecht and Donna Young as Peabody.
This mostly true account of actual events will leave you rolling in the aisles. It's fast-paced and at times, almost slap-stick. "GWTW" fans will appreciate the behind the scenes look at how this bestseller came to the silver screen.
A fun and lighthearted show you won't want to miss!
