Two Hollywood couples - Karen and Bev, and Steve and Missy - sit down for a dinner that quickly spirals out of control. At the heart of it all is a risque film scene meant to rescue the flagging careers of once-celebrated stars Karen and Steve. What follows is a sharp exchange about vanity, ambition, and narcissism.

LaBute's comedy takes aim at the absurdities of the entertainment industry and lays bare the compromises people will make to stay in the spotlight - landing its jokes with precision and leaving a thoughtful sting behind.
