When a corporate titan becomes the newest CEO of the State Theatre Centre she faces the challenge of a lifetime: overthrowing the manipulative and egotistical Artistic Director to save the theatre from collapse.
It's launch week at The Argyle Theatre. Margie Argyle's uncompromising vision costs her a CEO and lands her with a new one - Julia McNamara, a banker with both eyes on the bottom line and no time for drama.
Julia is determined to get The Argyle on track with performance reviews, creating chaos as Margie's new play is about to open. Meanwhile Julia's son Ryan wanders the halls, catching Margie's eye.
Julia learns about Margie's famous sister, Caitlen Allard, and wonders whether she's found her cash cow. Margie's mentor, a French clown, moves into The Argyle, creating a headache for Julia's sponsorship plans.
Margie decides to become social media famous and Ryan helps her to go viral, which fills the theatre but piques Caitlen's interest in The Argyle. A method actor playing Julian Assange goes too deep.
New smart locks malfunction, trapping staff throughout the theatre. Margie announces a huge Hollywood opportunity, but when Julia and Margie get stuck together in the props store, the truth comes out.
It's peak 'chookas' on Opening Night of "Le Paysan...". Julia's in too deep and needs Ryan, Margie's drunk, and Caitlen makes a grand entrance. The curtain rises on the show that will make or break The Argyle.
