Plot
In the clandestine realm of theatre, the rehearsal room is a hallowed sanctuary. It's a hidden enclave where artists bare their souls, stumble over lines, take bold risks, and, if the stars align, conjure a mesmerizing spectacle. This labyrinth of imagination and creativity is seldom breached by the public's gaze. Yet, In the Company of Actors boldly flings open these secret doors. This compelling narrative trails an elite ensemble of Australian actors, featuring the luminary talents of Cate Blanchett and Hugo Weaving. They are plunged into the challenging task of bringing to life the Sydney Theatre Company's rendition of the classic play, Hedda Gabler. Their stage? The illustrious Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York. With a mere five weeks until the curtain lifts on opening night, the heat of anticipation is palpable. Watch as they navigate the high stakes and pressures of theatre, in a journey that promises to be as dramatic off-stage as it is on.
