Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead
Seventeen-year-old Tanya Crandell’s plans for a carefree summer are derailed when her stressed-to-the-limit mom takes off for a wellness retreat and puts Tanya and her three siblings in the charge of a crotchety (and racist) old babysitter.
The babysitter’s sudden death leaves the kids short on cash and reluctant to pull mom prematurely out of her much-needed R&R, so Tanya is forced to get a job. Posing as an adult, she gets a gig as the executive assistant at a fashion company and overnight is thrust into the world of adulthood and parenting. Based on the 1991 film of the same name.
“It’s a snappy, gutsy comedy about how kids are spoiled and ignorant, and yet the adult workplace is only passingly more mature.” ~Amy Nicholson, The New York Times
“Genuinely funny, charming and sincere, it’s a respectful and revelatory update in a world where those are few and far between.” ~Courtney Howard, Variety
