ABOUT THE SHOW

This riotous comedy follows two brothers, Benny and Phil, who travel to the Arizona desert to be extras in a grandiose, biblical film called Exeunt Omnes. Throw in some gladiator battles, the 10 plagues and a misfiring burning bush and suddenly Phil is directing the film and Benny is starring in it! To add to the hilarity behind the scenes, both brothers fall in love with Louise, the assistant director in charge of the extras. Filled with a cast of thousands, this is truly a comedy of epic proportions!

by Larry Coen & David Crane
