Une troupe de comédiens, un auteur et un producteur n'ont qu'une seule idée en tête : monter le spectacle grandiose de leurs rêves. Si le manque de budget se fait cruellement ressentir et donne lieu à des discordes, la pièce prend tout de même forme, au prix de nombreux efforts. Cependant, un problème subsiste : la place du rôle masculin est toujours vacante alors que la date de la première représentation arrive à grands pas.
