Corky St. Clair has assembled some of Blaine, Missouri's finest thespians for a community theater production of Red, White & Blaine to celebrate the town's 150th anniversary. Using his connection from his Off-Off-Off-Off-Broadway days, Corky's invited producer Mort Guffman to see the show in hopes of bringing it to The Great White Way. Weeks of painstaking rehearsals leads to opening night that Guffman ends up missing due to inclement weather in New York.
While Best In Show is my favorite Christopher Guest movie, Waiting For Guffman certainly delivers a standing ovation. The mockumentary perfectly captures the world of community theater. Even though filming took place almost twenty-five years ago, little has changed in the town of Lockhart.
