The Adobe Theater

Cecily, Reggie and Wilfred reside in a home for retired opera singers in Kent, England. Each year, on the tenth of October, there is a concert to celebrate Verdi's birthday. Jean, who used to be married to Reggie, arrives at the home and disrupts their equilibrium.

Set against the backdrop of the post-Civil War South, Orgon, a man of property is duped by the false piety of Tartuffe, a penniless conman. Orgon takes him into his house, believing him a paragon of virtue. Dorine, the family servant, Orgon’s wife and other members of the family try to expose Tartuffe but most of their strategies comically misfire. Their attempts only anger Orgon, and to prove paternal power, he disinherits his son and makes Tartuffe his heir. Tartuffe finally shows his colors, and with the bailiff at the door ordering Orgon to vacate his own home and with Tartuffe filing suit to prove Orgon's a traitor, all seems lost.

It's 1934, and Shakespeare's most famous fairies, Oberon and Puck, have magically materialized on the Warner Bros. Hollywood set of Max Reinhardt's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Instantly smitten by the glitz and glamour of show biz, the two are ushered onto the silver screen to play (who else?) themselves. With a little help from a feisty flower, blonde bombshells, movie moguls, and arrogant "asses" are tossed into loopy love triangles, with raucous results. The mischievous magic of moviedom sparkles in this hilarious comic romp.
