Description Dramatic Reaction is a fun and frivolous lampoon on the making of live theatre. A two act satire Moliere would be proud of, Dramatic Reaction opens up a hidden world of theatre making. A young director and a feminist playwright team up with a Shakespearean icon and reality TV star to devise a hit new show. The only problem - none of them have a clue what they are doing. So who you gonna call? Aristotle!

With the help of The Poetics the team battle on as an eagle-eyed entertainment reporter tries to bring the whole thing crashing down around their ears.
