Young Female Playwright

Overview

When 26-year-old Millie lands a career-making debut as playwright at Canada’s National Theatre, celebration quickly turns to scrutiny after a press release describes her play as a “deeply personal story”. Millie is sure that the dark, family-drama is a work of fiction; but her family is concerned, especially her Uncle Mark, a school teacher and recovered alcoholic. Through bright lights, and dark comedy, Young Female Playwright asks who gets to tell what story, and what it costs for a woman to be believed.
