Taming Romeo
Synopsis:
When resident stage manager Kate ellinger discovers that one-time soap actor Brayden Cole has agreed to play the lead in their production of "Romeo and Juliet," she finds she has her hands full, not only dealing with a TV star's ego, but also with the easy-to-panic director and zany locals who make up the rest of the cast. Brayden misses the first rehearsal, and later admits he's in way over his head. He went from waiting tables to soap opera uber-star with no formal stage training. But the other actors are more than willing to help him. Duncan, an older man with affectations of greatness, works with Brayden on the Bard's language; Lonnie, the local high school coach, gets Brayden on an intense physical regiment; and the ladies, all grown-up groupies, continue their adoration of him. But progress stops when Jason, who wanted the part of Romeo, gets too violent rehearsing their tai chi fight (no swords in this production!) and is kicked out. How will they do a show without a Mercutio? Only Kate can fill in at this late date. . .except Kate is now a quivering ball of nerves before curtain! Brayden comes to the rescue as does the rest of the theatre family. a charming and humorous look into the world of community theatre. the show premiered at the West Coast ensemble in La.
