The Show Can’t Go On!

In what appears to be her last show, a burned-out sketch comedy writer/director shares a behind-the-scenes look at the “mounting and sustaining” of “Orange is the New Orange”; a sketch comedy show that skates on the edge of disaster. It’s a look at what could go wrong—what did go wrong.

The 90-minute feature starts with the first table read and takes the audience to the final curtain–the last night of the show’s run. And, through every calamity along the way.

Delivering Humor With A Moral Message

“The film is different, authentic and very funny.”
Owen J. Sloane, Entertainment Attorney

I’ve done dozens of sketch shows in the past 30 years, but never have I encountered such madness. It came down to laugh or cry. I preferred to laugh and so did many others in the cast.
