A Bunch of Amateurs

​

Keen to boost his flagging career, fading Holleywood action hero Jefferson Steele arrives in England to play King Lear in Stratford – only to discover this is not the birthplace of Shakespeare, but a sleepy Suffolk village. Instead of Kenneth Branagh and Dame Judi Dench, the cast are a bunch of amateurs trying to save their theatre from developers.
