An Awfully Big Adventure
It is 1947 England, and virginal theatre fanatic Stella, who still speaks with her dead mother by phone, joins a theatrical troupe headed by manipulative director Meredith Potter. Stella quickly falls for Potter, but he does not return her affections, driving her into the arms of the troupe's arrogant star, P.L. O'Hara. O'Hara eventually takes Stella's virginity as more secrets of the troupe begin to unravel, although she secretly remains devoted to Potter.
