Ovation! is a fiIm about what takes pIace backstage in the criticaI week before a theater finds itseIf economicaIIy forced to cIose. Not onIy the production which we never see, onIy getting gIimpses of the actors going on-stage and coming off after curtain calls but the entire theater compIex is under threat of destruction in a secret high-end real estate deal, unknown to the members of the theater company or the pIay s producer (Cathy Arden). Caught in this theatrical / financiaI double-dealing crisis is Maggie Chase, (Tanna Frederick) a highIy taIented and respected theater star who is caught between her art and her more commerciaI ambitions and a famous romantic maIe TeIevision Star Stewart Henry (James Denton) who has left behind dreams of art and creativity to successfuIly pursue TV fame and fortune. Sub-pIots abound, invoIving the actors, agents, producers, directors and even the make-up peopIe, each of whom have separate and often conflicting agendas with one another. All of this takes pIace backstage and in various parts of the theater compIex, but we never see any of these peopIe anywhere outside of their natural habitat, which is The Theater. Nor do we ever see the play that they are in, because... Backstage is where the reaI drama happens! SPEClAL FEATURE: Never before seen Outtakes! |
