A longtime comedian who has repeatedly failed to break big finds his one last shot at stardom thwarted by his toughest crowd yet in director
Pete Schwaba's tale of love and failure on the
standup circuit. Despite being singled out for stardom early on in his comedy career, L.A. comic
Joe Keegan (
Schwaba) never really managed to find his footage in the ultra-tough world of show business. Informed by his best friend,
Kenny (
Lance Barber), that
Tonight Show talent scout
Harvey Skoric will be attending the upcoming "Rocktober" festival in Pine Lake, WI,
Joe reluctantly decides to take a break from the West Coast and pull out all the stops for one final all-or-nothing audition. Initially dejected when his set is sabotaged by local emcee
Dug (
Thomas Lennon),
Joe finds inspiration in the form of his former high-school English teacher
Molly Mahoney (
Lauren Holly), herself attempting to overcome the recent pains of a failed marriage. Concerned that he may have been wasting his life but convinced by
Molly that he has simply been living his dream,
Joe takes the stage once again to face a formidable crowd filled with hunters,
Packers fans, and former high-school football star-turned-drug dealer
Big Jake Norquist (
Tony Goldwyn) -- the so-called "Godfather of Green Bay," who also has eyes for the lovely
Molly.
