For this engaging and often heartbreaking film, director Brent Meeske followed the performers of three acts playing at a Branson strip mall—two in actual theaters and one in the foodcourt—through all the ups and downs of three seasons. Offstage, they wait tables, sell gadgets at mall kiosks, perform for tips or meals, and sell CDs at gas stations—all just to make ends meet.
Throughout the film, performers confront the darkness of an unknowable future and struggle with lifelong demons of self-doubt and addiction. Shows close and re-open, and dreams are made, lost, and sometimes found again. The realists among the entertainers take their final curtain call, and a few realize they’re lucky to be making it anywhere, let alone making it in the big time of Branson.
