Summary
Jack Shore, a well-known television personality, is appearing for one night only in a tribute to his grandfather, Jacob Shemerinsky, great star of the Yiddish Theater. In his dressing room, Jack confronts his challenges as an actor and husband to his co-starring wife. Meanwhile, 75 years in the past, Jacob has problems of his own. Actors play their past and present roles in a dizzying display of life in the theater in this time-traveling farce that echoes past James Sherman smash comedies like Beau Jest, Jest a Second, and Affluenza!.
