Topher Grace heads this delightful ensemble as a Stage Manger for a Broadway show that’s opening. His continuously flappable charm helps him deal with all manner of mishaps and an assortment of quirky characters. Standouts are Taye Diggs going very gay, Rob Riggle as the over-the-top boss and Anne Heche as a washed-up diva. JC Chasez, formerly of NSYNC, plays an arrogant send-up of himself. There are also a few fun musical numbers featuring one-hit wonders. Anyone familiar with backstage at a play will find many things wrong with the details, but just ignore that and enjoy the cavalcade of crazy people and genuinely funny interactions.
