- HActresses is a wacked 6-part comedy web series about EVIE STEVENS and LUCY LEW, two naive best friends who ambitiously strive to achieve one impossible dream: to become successful professional actresses before they hit thirty. Despite years of failed auditions, co-op theatre and independent films, demeaning jobs, unscrupulous bosses, abject poverty, dysfunctional relationships and very little progress, their dream (or is it a delusion?) never dies. EVIE and LUCY share a house, a life and a dream together. But their only real current performing work is uploading acting scenes and Vlogs onto their YouTube channel with the assistance of their live-in-Landlord and long-suffering friend, financial backstop and washed-up musician TOMMY MCFARLANE. In their desperation, they attempt to court the favour of their hack agent as well as producers, directors and casting directors. Instead, they just receive propositions from users, losers, phonies and big-time nobodies. Although their lack of success may dampen their spirits at times, it definitely hasn't extinguished the flame that has burnt brightly within them since they graduated from drama school. Naively, the girls believe that their boss PEPPE DE LUCA may facilitate some opportunities for introductions, meetings and auditions. But after visiting his house, it becomes patently obvious that the favours that Peppe promises come at a very high cost. The girls' love lives with their boyfriends are not much better. 'HActresses' posits the question: Just how far do young actresses have to go to advance their career? In the wake of the horrific revelations about Harvey Weinstein, associates and other industry powerbrokers, this aspect of the HActresses storyline is timely and unfortunately all too familiar.
