Synopsis
A fascinating journey for lovers of theatre, this engrossing documentary takes us from the drama of auditions to the thrill of opening night. The real drama is backstage of course, in the form of emotional meltdowns, ego trips, twisted ankles and cast mutinies. Yet as the charismatic actors transform themselves into the timeless, tragic lovers, the film becomes about something more than theatre, revealing our very attitude to love itself.
