Humor | Romance Comedy
The child star that was left behind is about to get her
moment to shine in this swoony romantic comedy inspired by a
unique, beloved facet of pop culture history: The Mickey
Mouse Club. Holly Danner has a complicated relationship with fame. It's
not easy being the only cast member of a 1990s
song-and-dance show who didn't become famous. When she was
eleven, she used to do anything for a laugh (or at least a
laugh-track) on "Diego and the Lion's Den." If she
talked about it--which she almost never does--Holly might
explain how her childhood best friends came to dominate the
worlds of pop music, film, and TV while she was relegated to
a few near-misses and a nanny gig for her niece. She'd even
be telling the truth about making peace with the whole thing
years ago. But when she finds out there's a 25th anniversary for the
show planned--a televised reunion, clip show, and panel--and
she wasn't invited, it's time for an impromptu road trip to
crash the event and set the record straight. Three problems:
she's currently in Internet Rehab (perhaps she's not quite
as well-adjusted as she believes...), she has no cash, and
the only person who can get her across the country in time
is Thom Parker, a handsome, infuriatingly level-headed
patient who doesn't think she should confront her famous
ex-friends. FAME ADJACENT is a contemporary, realistic, and humorous
look at love, friendship, and fame, as seen through the eyes
of a girl who lived it--from the sidelines.
