Give & Take

Feature length comedy -- a coming of age story that takes place in the truly bizarre worlds of children's theatre and theme parks.

Description

Ellie is an idealistic, young actress living in The City. She’s a very giving person, so when her husband, Mitchell, gets a job offer back home in Buffalo, Ellie reluctantly agrees to the move.

Mitchell loves Buffalo, so Ellie looks for happiness there, too. She joins GLOBE--Gladys’ Lackawanna Off Broadway Entertainment. The producer, Gladys, is a diva who emits lesbian vibes. Although Gladys flirts with Ellie, Ellie winds up emotionally involved with the charming African American director, James. Ellie just keeps on giving and others keep on taking!

James casts Ellie in a theme park show and tells her it will be lots of fun, and she’ll get to do it eight times a day! He neglects to mention the grueling physical challenges involved. The show finally put Ellie over the edge and, at last, she learns to take care of herself. She returns to Mitchell but on her own terms this time.
