Have you seen the first two seasons? Get this: DVD – Slings & Arrows, Season Three.
From the back of the box:
"In its second season, this universally acclaimed series continues to mine dramatic and comic gold from the trials and tribulations of a dysfunctional Canadian theatre troupe, both on and offstage.
"Struggling with the unfamiliar burdens of success, the New Burbage Theatre Festival mounts two ambitious productions: Shakespeare's King Lear as well as East Hastings, a contemporary musical about a heroin-addicted hooker with a heart of gold. Artistic director Geoffrey Tennant (Paul Gross) coaxes legendary actor Charles Kingman out of semi-retirement to play Lear. But with plenty of personal baggage, Kingman doesn't so much play the part as live it. Meanwhile, the Festival’s resident bean-counter (Mark McKinney) joins forces with the musical’s flamboyant director (Don McKellar) to create the unlikeliest hit in theatre history. Special guest stars include award-winning actor William Hutt of Canada's Stratford Festival and indie-film star Sarah Polley (Go My Life Without Me, The Sweet Hereafter)."
