Summaries

Stagestruck Jenny is elated when she is cast in her mother's most famous role. She is unaware of the new production being staged as a parody of the dated play and interprets the role seriously. And nobody finds the courage to tell her.

Jenny has always been fascinated with the stage, especially since her mother was a famous actress. She learns that a theatrical company is putting on the play that included her mother's most famous role. She leaves home to join the company. The trouble is, she doesn't realize that the producers consider the moth-eaten play high camp, while Jenny is taking the whole thing seriously.—Daniel Bubbeo <[email protected]>
