About the Project

Joseph, an abrasive pushing 40 talent agent, is awoken in the middle of the night to a call from his top billing client. She’s on Catalina Island for a photoshoot without any of her wardrobe or glam. He arrives at the Lido Dry Stacks ready to set sail but waits on one last thing: his assistant Fiona. 

 

Fiona and Joseph embark on a tumultuous journey full of obstacles that challenge their already fragile relationship. Deckhand is a comedic look at the divide between agent and assistant. Focused around two careerists of different generations, genders, and social stratification to examine the deepening divide between employer and employee. 

 

Deckhand is a two person comedy set on board a failing speedboat.
