Plot Synopsis

Unfortunately, struggling actor Wayne is only famous for starring in a low-budget commercial for Irritable Bowel Syndrome medication, a situation he is hoping to change when he finally lands a starring role in a national root beer ad. But when the paycheck for his big break is delayed, he takes a job as a substitute teacher, teaching Shakespeare at the local high school. He is soon surprised with how much he loves the job and fellow English teacher Amy, who is immediately impressed with his passion and creativity. As they start to fall in love against the school's strict no-fraternizing policy, they must dodge the watchful eye of Vice Principal Trautman, the school's strict enforcer who's own crush on Amy is no secret. Harboring a vengeful grudge with Wayne, Trautman sets out to ruin his career and his relationship. But before he can do any serious damage, Wayne threatens to sabotage himself when he decides to suddenly quit the teaching job for a movie role, disappointing his parents, his students and most of all, Amy. Now, he must ultimately decide if his dreams of stardom are really worth sacrificing everything for.
