Comedy

Refined actress Lauren Ames finally has a chance to study with the great theatre professor Stanislav Korzenowski. Sandy Brozinsky, a brash, loud actress, decides through happenstance to also study with Korzenowski. The two women end up dating the same man (who turns out to be a double agent) and follow him across the country to force him to choose between them.

VIBE

A whirlwind of mistaken identities and over-the-top performances. This 80s romp is pure, unadulterated chaos, fueled by zany antics and a surprisingly propulsive pace. Expect big laughs and even bigger hair.
