Moonlight and Magnolias

This hilarious comedy based on a Hollywood legend, conjectures on what really happened when in 1939 David O Selznick locked himself, together with his director and writer in his office to rework the screenplay of his new film “Gone With The Wind”. Having only five days to come up with a final draft, the three men proceed to act out Margaret Mitchell’s epic novel while living on a diet of bananas and peanuts.

“Frankly my dear, this is one funny play...a rip-roaring farce with witty pointed dialogue and hilarious situations”...New York Daily News.
