Artifice
Struggling artist Payne Showers finally gets his Big Break. He dies. Fortunately, Payne's death greatly inflates the value of his work.
Unfortunately, his estranged wife, Maggie, must sell it all to avoid bankruptcy.
To Maggie's delight, Mick Fitzgerald fabulously rich real estate mogul buys dozens of paintings. Not only will the deal rescue her financially, but Judith Fontaine is covering the story.
The resulting publicity will put Maggie's gallery on the map! At this point, the only thing that could go wrong would be if Payne Showers were to walk through the door........
Artifice is a farcical take on celebrity and success and an affectionate tribute to loyalty and love.
