Description
Hollywood, 1987. A couple meet in a stand-up comedy workshop. What more
can possibly go wrong? Driven by a haunting childhood memory, loner
David Bishop moves from Dallas to Los Angeles in search of a fresh
start. The ensuing 1987 Black Monday economic crash forces David into a
part-time job as a host for singles networking parties. “There’s no
middle ground,” comedian Rocco Manelli warns. “Here it’s either old
money, new money or no money.”
Motivated by his attraction to
singer Sarah Fleming and mounting financial pressure, David negotiates
the humorous challenges of stand-up comedy, a poetic Bohemian
subculture, and the forbidding backstreets of Hollywood. A
life-affirming story of friendship and redemption, Angel City Singles is
filled with suspense, passion and humor as David struggles with the
transcendent possibilities for love and understanding.
