The film records the show's struggle from drawing board to stage - the producer, Michael White's phone battles with his backers - the first audition, the chaotic rehearsals, the moulding of a multinational cast into an accomplished troupe. Finally the performance itself, as the diverse elements of the production come together, and a triumphant opening night. Written by Transatlantic Films See less
