All the Dumb Things

SYNOPSIS

Like a Gen X, rock & roll Don Quixote, Dallas Payne has dared to dream the impossible dream, tilted at windmills and smoked way too many cigarettes. Pouring his heart out night after night, bleeding out every last ounce of emotion to keep it real and to make you feel. 

In one night Dallas is ignored by his audience, abandoned by his band mates, evicted from his apartment and then confronted by the sudden death of his ex wife. Things are getting too real too quickly. 

​

Now his estranged 12 year old son Dylan needs a father. No more delays, no more excuses, no more hands off parenting. This just might be the challenge of Dallas’s life, an audience he must win over.

​

Don’t You Forget About Me, is a poignant story about the way music marks the chapters in our lives. A song is like a time machine, indelibly transporting us back to a moment. Nothing else envelops us in a warm blanket of nostalgia like music and that swirling melody and profound lyrics hot-wire our subconscious to float through a memory like a waking dream.
