BRIEF DESCRIPTION Groupies
is a savvy comedy/drama that will make you examine the real definition of the
word: "groupie." Mia, Lisa, and Pancake
are three women trying to build successful careers, as well as find that dream
guy life-partner who fits the triple-threat of good looks, fame, and money. But
in the male-dominated entertainment industry, any flirtation is likely to label
even a good girl with a scarlet letter G, putting a strain on their reputations,
their careers, and eventually their friendships. SYNOPSIS
