About the Project

“Hollywood Perfume” follows the exploits of studio marketing chief extraordinaire Kerry Hynde, a woman desperate to destroy a movie’s box office performance to further her own selfish agenda….but who must first outsmart the minions who are desperate to destroy her for theirs. It’s a dark comedy about showbiz greed and corruption, media saturation, closeted skeletons, and a silly little thing called power.

“Hollywood Perfume” has been presented in four staged readings:

*June 2014 @ The Production Company (Van Nuys)
Directed by the playwright

*January 2011 @ Eclectic Company Theatre (Valley Village)
Directed by the playwright

*June 2006 @ The Road Theatre Company (North Hollywood)
Directed by Doug Tompos

*July 2005 @ The Road Theatre Company (North Hollywood)
Directed by the playwright

Dean Farell Bruggeman’s plays have been produced, workshopped and read at such Los Angeles-area theatres as The Production Company @ The Lex, Company of Angels, The Road, The Hudson, The Lonny Chapman Group Repertory Theatre, West Coast Ensemble, Knightsbridge Theatre and Eclectic Company Theatre. “Memory Grove” was a 2012 semifinalist for the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center’s National Playwrights Conference and a 2013 finalist for Playhouse on the Square’s New Works @ The Works in Memphis.
