The place: St. Louis, Missouri. The period: The Roaring '20s. The problem: With national prohibition laws in effect, the world of spirits and alcohol has been forced to move underground, starting a massive network of rum-running and speakeasies under the very noses of the authorities. One of the most successful of these speakeasies is the Lackadaisy, an exclusive club founded by one Atlas May, and which may only be entered by those sporting Lackadaisy's unique Clubs lapel pin. For a while, the Lackadaisy was the place to be for those wishing to partake in drink, but all this came crashing down when Atlas is violently murdered. Atlas' wife Mitzi May is left with the reins, but the controversy surrounding his death, including the rumor that Mitzi herself was involved, causes a sharp decline in both staffing and customers. Meanwhile, Lackadaisy's main rivals, the Marigolds gang, are making their resurgence, aided by not only former Lackadaisy employees, but also several other unsavory characters who have no qualms getting their hands bloody. ‖ Predictions fancast for the animated adaptation of Lackadaisy. Professional VAs only, no celebs.
