What's In A Name? Joan
Benjamin, a plain and uptight secretary on Long Island, New
York, is
suffering an identity crisis brought on by a very bad week. Her
ex-fiancé just married someone else; she's lost her cushy
overpaid job;
and she's been kicked out of her apartment. All because of
women named
Jennifer! So when Joan learns that her parents almost named her
Jennifer, she decides to transform herself into the Jennifer
she might
have been... It's Either Everything... Armed
with all the pop psychology she can get her hands on—and
with the help
of a dear friend who can recite Cosmo-style stats by
heart—Joan sets
out to cultivate her inner Jennifer: a sexy, successful
belle-of-the-ball who's completely in charge of her
professional and
private lives.
Or Nothing At All. But
“Project Jennifer” is not a rousing success right out of the
gate—apparently, even Jennifers can have bad dates and wardrobe
malfunctions—but soon Joan begins to feel transformed by her
new self.
In fact, her Jennifer persona might end up teaching her a few
unexpected lessons about life: like how to say “yes” to
things you want
and “no” to things you don't, and that just being yourself
is enough.
Even if that self is named Joan...
A clever, fun new twist on a story of a modern woman
grappling with the very nature of who she is and why,
Project Jennifer explores whether having the right
name can really take you places..
