Riley is living a nightmare: one lead actor doesn't know his lines, another lead actor is having an ill-advised showmance, they're not allowed to touch the set, and the actors with small roles are about to mutiny for more stage time. It all comes crashing down in this hilarious adaptation of Shakespeare's 28th-most loved play.
