In a frenetic on-stage exorcism, actor and filmmaker Nick Cohen relives his rollercoaster journey from South London to Sunset Boulevard. A double Oscar-winner on the Academy panel invites Nick over to Los Angeles with the promise of a nomination and secret formula for a win. Nick’s descent into a Hollywood hellscape conjures ancestral trauma, exposing a predatory world of damaged dream chasers along with metaphorical – and sometimes literal – corpses. Nick plays 31 different characters, from predatory agents to Hollywood psychics, including the man who modelled the Oscar trophy itself, and a potential future bride who just happens to be the daughter of a psychotic producer.
