DIDI'S ANTHEM
Copyright 2012 Susanna Bonaretti and Santa Shorts Productions
Deidre is a driven young woman who’s been told that she will never break that glass ceiling and that she will end up just like her stay-at-home mother. With cold and ruthless calculation, she vows to do what it takes to make it in a hard business world - and she will make it – despite being a woman. As she lays down her plans, she envisions the rewards she will achieve by her brutal resolve and fortitude… and also what she may stand to lose.
This film is part of a series of short, mostly performance poetry pieces all with a twist and a touch of irony, cynicism and fun, called “Painful Poetry and Other Patter, Prose and Platitudinous Pabulum”.

A little more about this piece of Painful Poetry...
Synopsis...
Some industrial betrayal, a ruptured romance, a one-sided love affair, a bit of adultery and a whacking great lot of homophobia are the ingredients that go to make Lipstick a musical comedy play.
Blend in a dollop of improbable disguises, add a touch of jealousy and retribution and the plot thickens as it is stirred by an androgynous petrol-head out to give an ambitious sleep-around babe what-for.
Set in Newtown, things just don’t go as planned when a sales manager and his personal assistant don’t get that promotion they’ve been so keen on. From there, they take the ultimate step to get even: treachery but end up themselves being betrayed.
Lipstick deals with truth in perception and one woman’s tormented struggle to accept her feelings when she discovers her perceptions have betrayed her.
