      Laughing Stock

Gordon Page, a middle-aged artistic director of a summer stock barn 
theater in New Hampshire, embarks on the theater's 67th season taking 
the random and comical cast and crew on a wild ride that includes giant 
mosquitoes, eccentric directors and a /very/ limited budget while the 
group gallantly attempts to keep the ship from sinking. /Laughing Stock/ 
gives audiences a backstage look at a ragtag troupe of actors and their 
backstage mischief as they attempt to stage three repertory productions. 
/Hamlet/, /Charley's Aunt/ and /Dracula/ have never been performed like 
this! This show is a hectic and hilarious testament to theaters 
everywhere that never seem to have enough time, staff, money or talent 
to pull off the show, yet in the end, everyone gives it their all. It 
captures the magic of theater, showing how the art form tells a story 
while at the same time creating a temporary family amongst the cast and 
crew no matter where the show goes on.
