greasemonkey

​BASED ON THE SUCCESSFUL OFF-BROADWAY PLAY,
A NEW AMERICAN INDIE FILM IS HITTING THE ROAD IN 2019!
After the passing of her much-beloved dad, MARA takes over his vintage car restoration shop.
She finds herself responsible for running a garage full of men, as well as filling her father's very big shoes.
And as glad as she is to continue his legacy, she also pines for love, for romance,
and perhaps more importantly: for family, especially now that her father is no longer around. 

​​A story about loves and cars, old and new.
Inspired by the writings of folks such as Alice Walker, Noel Coward and James Tipton.

After several well-received iterations of Greasemonkey on stages across the United States,
as well as being a semi-finalist for the Princess Grace Award in Playwriting,
the story of Mara, her men and her cars is now on its way to the big screen.

​With the support of the 2017 Puffin Grant in Film for its stage-to-screen adaptation,
the team of Greasemonkey is currently looking for partners, sponsors and investors
to make sure the film can be shot on location in California's East Bay in 2019.

In 2017, our far-flung team came together in New York City to try its hand at adapting Greasemonkey's first encounter between Mara and potential love interest Patrick to film. The result can be watched above; the not-so-smooth outtakes can be seen below​!
