George and Charlotte Hay are fading stars of the 1950s. At the moment, they’re playing Private Lives and Cyrano De Bergerac in Buffalo, NY with five actors. On the brink of a disastrous split-up, they receive word that they might have one last shot at stardom: Frank Capra is coming to see their matinee, and if he likes what he sees, he might cast them in his next movie. Everything that could go wrong does go wrong in this valentine to the stage and the larger-than-life personalities that inhabit the world of the theatre.
