Acting Up

A play with song and dance: Students and staff from the Acton Acting Academy are organising their final production - Jose Adam Gonzalez the teacher enjoys the control he has over his class. A guest speaker, Irina Polovnikova - a high flyer, is brought in to inspire Empowerment for Women. She takes over the college. Rather than have his wings clipped, Jose leaves for Africa where he learns a new way of life - now going by his middle name of Adam. Adam chooses a wife for himself, Eve Nancy Stevens, and tries to influence the commune where they live to follow his ideals. Challenged by his wife's step sister, Seven Sines, he struggles with his own conflicting emotions, family duty and finally kicks her out. The commune is run by a rich daddy's girl Zuko - her passion is art and the 'Themed Poet's Society'.
