Hey everyone,

It’s me, Sean Pollock, the AD/Co-Founder of Unattended Baggage!

For the past year, we’ve taken a bit of a hiatus (again).

Not long after ONE ACTS: VOLUME I (2024), I moved to Los Angeles where I’m not now reunited with co-founders Drew Weinstein and Emma Howard (who is technically in Riverside, but close enough). But to no one’s surprise, the economy (and the fires) has made fundraising and creating projects out west pretty challenging.

To honor our re-location here in Tinseltown, where movie magic happens, we are once more asking for some help from our community here in LA (and beyond) to create our new and exciting SEASON OF CINEMA!

But we need to raise at least $10,000 to make it happen.

You can learn more about them on the Upcoming page, but to save you some time:

A thriller/dark comedy called THE CHEYENNE FINGER by Sean Pollock, starring Sam Lassiter. Here’s the logline: After exposing a severed finger in her online order from a major clothing brand, a rising content creator becomes the target of a deadly fast fashion cartel determined to silence her for good. It’s going to be really darkly funny, scary, and weird.
A full length version of a new play, DONNIE AND GREG, directed/written by Sean Pollock. Here's a synopsis: A new full-length play about a blossoming gay high school romance during the AIDS crisis of the late 1980s. Drawing inspiration from a famous 2001 sci-fi/horror cult film featuring the Gyllenhaals, time travel, parallel universes, paranormal orbs, and a freaky-looking bunny, this play transforms those elements into an unauthorized, transformative theatrical work. Debuting at The Stray Theatre on Friday, March 6th for one night, and two performances only at 7 & 9:30 PM! Proceeds to benefit Mutual Aid LA Network.
