Synopsis:

Plot: A woman tries to end her affair after her husband becomes suspicious. She really loves her husband and calls the affair a 'diversion'. However it is at the breakup point that she learns an evil TRUTH NOTE: I am Doing a heightened number of projects due to the spring roll outs. I have rented a number multi media venues for Spring/Summer. One venue could hold 5-9 stories and multi media (short films). If you see a lot of projects by me under this banner, this is the reasoning. Background: created this project specifically for two actors with the purpose of filming Sunday April 12th 2026 with an hour cast reading on Wednesday. If the two actors are unavailable for this project, then I will choose from the submissions here. I WILL NOT request you to do anything for Hilary or Cash until its confirmed (by Apr 6th evening) that the actors it is written for are not available. The LISKY role is totally open. For the submission to Lisky, you can upload sides or submit a reading of the character. Lisky is smug, cocky, confident and about to drop a bomb.

Project Notes

QandA: Q: I see so many projects under the name Ross. How can he possibly do so many projects? It seems unreal. A. One of the things I do is rent out a huge venue. A venue that can drop a huge movie screen in the midst of the show. This gives me unimaginable and endless creative possibility. With this venue, I will rollout sometimes up to 9 live mini stories. This is where the radio and tv promotions that say 'a show that reinvents itself every 10-15 minutes' comes from. So right there you have a casting for 9 projects. The show features a couple of short films. So that can mean 12 different projects I am casting for in ONE singular event. Then I take each of those LIVE mini stories and turn them into short films. This means expanding the casts. Here is now nine additional projects I must cast for. Then to add more steam to the vision, I will take the base project and turn it into a full one night complete live play in Hollywood. So now there are additional casting needed as we add new actors. So one project has turned into the possibility of me casting over 20 projects. In addition, I am creating short films that stand on their own for the purpose of pitch companions. I also wok with a small production company that is constantly asking me for projects as they move to build their name and become a power player in tinseltown. More casting. The moral: I am, always creating. One of the reasons why I am on a heavy search to find a singular actor (think Johnny Depp and Tim Burton) who I can create endless projects for is to pocket my creative energy into one space. The big shows cost 20k and a lot of leg work. Imagine if I had one singular actor who I could create a ton of stories around and cast around them. At this point I would love the challenge of that and would welcome the containment in that process.
