“All the world's a stage. Some of us are just better players.”
A documentary crew detail the struggle of Unbelievable Productions' visionary leader, Madeleine LaRoy, to stage a revolutionary reboot of Shakespeare's MACBETH (in space), with the help of her faithful best friend/choreographer/costume & set designer/tea lady/everything else, Deirdre Snowflake Fleckman. Madeleine enlists young drama school graduate Scott Johnson and alcoholic veteran of the stage Desmond Darke to help her mount her astounding vision.
