A theatre company which enjoyed glory and fame years ago, has now fallen into disgrace.\u00a0 The company members, Jean the director, Adrianne, his former love and always lead actress, Evanthoula with avant-garde drama training, Vladimir, a veteran street theatre artist, Savvas who specializes in physical theatre and is dumb and Vivi, a young actress and Jean\u2019s latest love conquest, risk losing their theatre.\u00a0 The Church wants to close them down because of \u2018their obscene spectacles in the recent years\u2019;\u00a0 the Teachers Board wants them out because they have not staged a children\u2019s performance for over ten years; and the Italian Mafia wants back the money they lent them last month, or else they will burn the theatre down -with them inside.\u00a0 In a desperate attempt to save their theatre and their lives, the company promises to stage three productions: a children\u2019s play for the Board, a cabaret musical for Mafia\u2019s 125year anniversary and a religious drama for the nuns of the local convent. In frenzy, the theatre group starts rehearsing on all three productions, but an unbelievable coincidence brings about a huge misunderstanding: on the opening night of the children\u2019s play, the theatre hall is full not only of children, but also of Mafia members and nuns, all of whom believe it\u2019s the opening night of their own performance.\u00a0 What will the actors do?\u00a0 The impossible, of course: before the eyes of their mixed audience, they will improvise and stage a performance which will successfully blend all three plays and satisfy their diverse audience! Can theatre magic help them?\u00a0 One thing is certain:\u00a0 as Jean, the director of the group says, \u201cmy beloved family, it\u2019s show time\u201d!<\/p>\n
My beloved family<\/p>\n
