When the town of Blaine, Mo., approaches its sesquicentennial, there’s only one way to celebrate: with a musical revue called “Red, White and Blaine.” Hoping the show will be his ticket back to Broadway, impresario Corky St. Clair (Christopher Guest) rounds up a cast of enthusiastic but untalented locals (Eugene Levy, Fred Willard, Catherine O’Hara) to perform his masterwork. But, when Corky reveals that theater agent Mort Guffman will attend the opening, things really kick into high gear.

“Oozing with knockout humor and packed to the gills with heart, WAITING FOR GUFFMAN is a one-of-a-kind gem. Let’s not disappoint Corky, so come on out to enjoy what Blaine, Missouri, has to offer. And if you can’t make it, to paraphrase Libby Mae Brown, you’ll always have a place at the Dairy Queen.”
