HERE'S GINGER!

Web Series

Director: Michèle Kaye

Screenwriter: Michèle Kaye & Tejasvi Bhalla

Producers: Laura Tremblay, Michèle Kaye

Genre: Dark Comedy

Starring: Chantelle Wilson, Jack Foley, Michèle Kaye

Here’s Ginger! is a dark comedy about a fifty-year old woman named Ginger. After spending all the money she made acting on a kids show twenty years earlier, Ginger is forced to find a new job. Getting back into acting is something her elderly “stage mom” encourages, but Ginger has other ideas. Driven by a fascination with the “corporate world” that she and her equally out-of-touch best friend Summer have heard so much about, Ginger finds an entry-level job in an office. Her interview with a misogynistic, egotistical white man sets the tone for her experience, and things only get worse from there. Ginger learns that real office life is far different from the romanticized world she had imagined. When she can no longer bear the hypocrisy, monotony, and outright corruption of corporate culture, she returns, reluctantly, to acting. Throughout the series, Ginger is judged on her age, for being broke, for not having children, and for not being married. She is consistently patronized and harassed, but always perseveres – and in the end, she gets the last laugh.
