Synopsis

< We Married Margo > is a comedy about the pain of divorce, the fear of commitment and loneliness. Obviously, a lot of laughs. Margo is based on the true adventures of how Jake and Rock were both married to and subsequent dumped by the same beautiful woman-Margo. As told from Jake’s exaggerated point of view to whomever will listen –whether on a airplan, eating lunch in a deli or just walking down Broadway-the two ex-husbands, so different in every way, become roommates, writing partners and finally friends. Ultimately, they discover they have more in common than they would lide to admit, including their membership in the Margo survivors association.
