A backstage comedy set at a struggling small New England summer-stock theater company as it rehearses and mounts its latest production, with all the accompanying ego clashes, romantic entanglements, and creative disasters that come with amateur and semi-professional theater life. The play finds affectionate comedy in the gap between the actors' grand theatrical ambitions and the shoestring, chaotic reality of putting on a show with limited resources and outsized personalities. Backstage rivalries, opening-night jitters, and the eternal tension between art and commerce drive much of the humor. It's a warmly self-aware comedy that theater people, in particular, tend to find especially funny.
