No Funny Business

Texas transplant Olivia Vincent is struggling as a stand-up comic in New York City, paying the bills with her lawyer day job. As they say in comedy, timing is everything, and when Olivia is asked to join a cross-country comedy tour, shortly after being fired from her corporate gig, the timing could not be better. Being the opening act for handsome and hilarious Nick Leto only sweetens the deal. Their tour takes one unexpected turn after another, from flat tires to funerals to Elvis extravaganzas. Along the way, they share laughs and life stories, as their funny business turns into something more serious. Aksel (Delia Suits Up) blends relationship fiction and romantic comedy in this complex story about following dreams and facing reality. The witty repartee between main characters is more engaging than the play-by-play of their stand-up routines, but narrator Amanda Ronconi keeps them equally entertaining with Olivia’s Southern twang and varied voices for the supporting cast of characters.
