Pyramid Scheme

In this uplifting romantic comedy, a suburban socialite receives a mysterious message in a recurring dream which turns out to be her call to destiny, and through a series of serendipitous mishaps, outrageous miscommunications, cross-cultural cross-dressing, and “explosive” diplomacy she unwittingly saves the peace process in the Middle East. 

Screenplay & Lyrics by Diane Uniman, Score by Kevin M Cotter.

“The characters that drove the story were three of the most amazing characters that added an abundance of humor to the point that we were upset when the screenplay was finished.”
