[FULL LENGTH, work in progress]: In 1982, love in the afternoon rules daytime TV, but behind the scenes at the soap opera "The Tides of Time," the writers’ room finds themselves embroiled in as much drama off screen as there is on. Struggling with criticism from network executives, veteran head writer Dorothy knows she can always count on Linda, her second-in-command. But a proposed controversial storyline threatens to upend their special mentorship. In 2008, Dorothy is long gone, soap operas are considered a joke and Linda returns to "The Tides of Time" after the Writers’ Strike. Fighting against declining viewership and threats of cancellation, Linda must find a way to save "The Tides of Time" or let it sink. THE TIDES OF TIME is a play about the trailblazing women behind the scenes of television’s most maligned genre.
