Overall Call:
A spoof on small towns and community theatre, that's like shootn' fish in a barrel. Every fish is nailed perfectly. This one is chalked full of great performances and scenes to discuss at the water cooler the next day. If you have ever been in a play or know anyone that has, watch, chuckle, laugh and guffaw.

Reasons For Recommendation:
+ Christopher Guest is hysterical
+ Rest of the cast is great too
+ Just plain funny script
