A circle of students huddle together on their first day at Drama Arts: Nell, already convinced that she is going to fail; Dan, whose sights are fixed firmly on Hamlet; and the glamorous Charlie, who expects nothing less than effortless success. They are told, in no uncertain terms, that here, unlike at any other drama school, they will be taught to Act. To Be. To exist in their own world on the stage. But what of the outside world that threatens to crush their most fervent dreams: the unobtainable agents, illogical auditions, haphazard tours and rocky relationships? Lucky Break dazzlingly uncovers the ruthless ambition and uncertain alliances behind the red curtain.
