Cafe Scioppero

Ten Guild writers, stymied by the WGA strike, now in its sixteenth week, face a terrible choice: find other work, or starve. Starvation is off the table, so they get together with some striking Teamsters, two grips, and a some sympathetic Craft Service workers, pool their cash, max their plastic, and open a restaurant. So much hilarity ensues, that a prominent TV producer wants to make Cafe Scioppero a (non-Union) reality show.
