Oliver Adams is on the brink of a major success. His novel The Angel Next Door is set to be published, and famous playwrights Charlotte and Arthur Sanders have already adapted it into what’s sure to be a huge Broadway hit starring Margot Bell, the very woman Oliver adores and about whom he has written his novel (though he hasn’t told her yet).

When they all converge for a weekend in Newport, Rhode Island, the thin walls of the well-appointed mansion reveal that the angel may not be so angelic, and only the power of theatre can save the play, Oliver’s novel, and perhaps most importantly, his heart.
