When a community theater company’s existence is threatened with budget cuts, the young man running it and his wife, who are holding on to the hope of realizing their artistic and familial dreams, which often clash, decide to put on a final production of “All Together” in an all-or-nothing attempt to save the small-town theater.
The passionate director of a small town theater faces closure as a result of finances, so he proposes a last-ditch effort to stage a small, low-budget summer show. He and his wife, along with two young actors from vastly different backgrounds, struggle through clashes in priorities and ethos in their shared goal to save the theater.
A husband-and-wife team attempts to put on a stage performance that will prove their ability to draw a crowd and preserve their right to keep renting out their community theater space.

During a group meeting, Terry encounters former jock and bully JEREMY (30s) as he takes over the space. Terry and Maria then speak with MR. GROSSMAN (60s), and he informs them that he has to rent out their auditorium to other, higher-paying people.
