Happiness
There’s no business like show business — a sentiment far too familiar to acclaimed Broadway director, Charlie Summers. But after 20 years in the New York musical theatre world, he's found himself in a bit of a predicament. Now Charlie’s back in his small hometown of Taraunga, New Zealand — and he's harboring a secret that threatens to damage both his reputation and long-term career.
When Charlie learns his mom’s amateur theatre troupe is putting on a new musical number, he begrudgingly agrees to check it out. But much to his surprise, he ends up more involved in the production than he originally thought.
