A Bunch of Amateurs

by Nick Newman & Ian Hislop As a fading Hollywood action movie hero seeks to rescue his ebbing career, his agent lands him a gig playing King Lear in Stratford. Unfortunately, rather than the home of the RSC, its the wrong Stratford and the hapless star finds himself in a village hall with the local am-dram society. There can only be trouble in store as the unassuming locals clash with the massive ego, tantrums, and lofty expectations of the petulant diva from Tinseltown.
