All My Passions: A Comedy In Three Acts

For the past fifty years, ALL MY PASSIONS has been a fixture of daytime television. But like its toothless and toupee'd leading man, the venerable soap opera is clearly showing its age. In an effort to boost crumbling ratings, studio heads decide to up the sleaze factor. That is, until small town, social crusader Hamilton Bennett threatens a nationwide boycott unless the soap opera cleans up its act. The network's solution? Hire him as a 'Program Consultant,' hoping he will be dazzled by Hollywood glamour and slip quietly away. But they don't know Hamilton Bennett, and his humorous battles with cast and crew soon turn all of daytime programming on its head! A zany romantic comedy with a fun and frantic show-within-a-show format, ALL MY PASSIONS uses love, laughter and a little naughtiness to skewer Hollywood, the media and our current celebrity obsession.
