Actresses
Robin Greenspan and
Lacie Harmon used the ups and downs of their real-life romance as the inspiration for this
comedy drama about two performers whose real lives are beginning to mirror their latest roles.
Robin (
Greenspan) is an actress who has been in a deeply committed relationship with
Audrey (
Katherine Randolph) for six years, while fellow thespian
Lacie (
Harmon) is not much on commitment and tends to tire of her lovers once the initial excitement wears off.
Robin an
Lacie have been cast opposite one another as lesbian lovers in a play directed by the wildly flamboyant
Gabriel (
Dom DeLuise). While they don't get along well at first, an undeniable chemistry develops between
Robin and
Lacie, and before long they discover they've fallen in love. However, this doesn't entirely happy news;
Robin has to decide if she wants to dump
Audrey for
Lacie, while
Lacie has to choose between the freedom of the single life and her feelings for
Robin. Based on the play
Real Girls,
Girl Play also features
Mink Stole as
Robin's mother, who has little understanding of her daughter's sexual orientation.
