Synopsis

In order to kick-start his failing career, has-been actor Rex Maverick agrees to star in a production in China, the theatre world’s hottest “emerging market.” But instead of bustling Beijing, Rex finds himself in a tiny village directing a cast of enthusiastic amateurs. While Rex is stuck in the town, cultures clash, personalities collide, and musical magic is born. (fringetoronto.com)
