Like 'SMASH' . . . only downtown and real!
Set against the backdrop of the worst financial crisis since the Depression, this exciting documentary captures internationally acclaimed Brooklyn-based theatre ensemble the TEAM (Theatre of the Emerging American Moment) fighting to keep their company afloat while caught in the midst of creating MISSION DRIFT, their critically acclaimed musical epic about American Capitalism. Granted unprecedented access to the TEAM’s collaborative creative process, multiple Emmy Award-winning director Paulette Douglas follows the company for three years, from initial concept to world premiere—from New York to Vegas to Europe—in a rare behind-the-scenes look at all the passion, disappointment, and drama of this roller coaster ride through the heart of indie theatre.
