The Greenroom (2018)

Peek behind the scenes, where the real drama happens

Date

20 – 28 April 2018

Location

EGO Arts Venue, Jesson House, Cook St, Coventry

Synopsis

When film director Vic Valentine wants his cash reserves to go down the crew knows something’s up. He’s looking to make a blockbuster but it seems some of the team don’t want him to get beyond the trailer.
Meet Vic and his crew in the greenroom where the real drama happens, nothing goes quite as it should, and where lies and deception take a cameo role worthy of an Oscar winning performance. A stage comedy that would definitely be an action thriller on the big screen.
