A witty comedy about a young director who finds herself in absolute chaos at the venerable Comédie-Française, the national theater in Paris, just before the premiere of her play.
Macbeth as a wacky comedy? No, this isn't a reinterpretation of the classic tale at the historic Comédie-Française. Rather, it's the truly breakneck final three hours that young director Nina has left to salvage her opening night. But on this day, nothing seems to go right! An embarrassingly pedantic doorman or a baby carriage suspended above the stage are the least of her problems. Even the stage lighting makes it unmistakably clear that absolute chaos has taken hold of the venerable building. This would normally be reason enough for Nina to call everything off, but at the Comédie-Française, there's an unwritten rule: the performance is never canceled – under any circumstances!
