A group of Dorset bus drivers, tired of performing pantomimes, decide to create a serious adaptation of the sci-fi horror film Alien. They spend a year crafting the show, finding inventive ways to recreate the original's atmosphere with homemade effects. Initially a crushing flop, the performance unexpectedly earns a second chance when the amateur dramatics group is surprisingly chosen to perform their accidental comedy in London’s West End. With shaky sets and awkward acting, their debut promises a night of chaotic, unexpected entertainment.
