LIVING THE DREAM (SITCOM PILOT SCRIPT)
LIVING THE DREAM is a sitcom pilot. A naive European actress comes to Hollywood to make all her dreams come true, but instead stumbles into every possible pitfall. The naive quirky actress Elli leaves her life in Europe behind to make all her dreams come true in Los Angeles. Her best friends are a hopeless procrastinator and a high-functioning alcoholic. Her immigration lawyer is a paranoid conspiracy theorist, and her agent has no clue what he's doing. So what can go wrong? Download the Pitch Deck and watch the Pitch Video!
