In the play, the cast is a touring company rehearsing for a British farce called “Nothing On” . It is the night before the first show opens after only 2 weeks of rehearsal. The show involves lots of slamming doors and plates of sardines as well as romantic relationships both on and off stage. Act I ends when the cast finishes rehearsing Act I of “Nothing On”. Act II is four weeks later and relationships (both friendly and romantic) are beginning to change and get frazzled. This act is Act I of “Nothing On” as seen from backstage - more slamming doors and sardines as well as bouquets of flowers and costume mishaps. Act III is four weeks later – Act I of “Nothing On” as seen again from the audience point of view. Total mayhem!
