THE STORY: Leon, the house janitor, cleans up after the local musical production. When Alan, the star, hears him sing, he invites Leon to join the community theater group. Leon will have nothing to do with it: it’s out of his interest, his class, his race. Seeing through the arrogance, Alan spies an interest in music and drama and convinces Leon to give lessons in acting. The two strike a tender and delicate balance amidst raunchy language, veiled lies, and lots of humor.
