Unscripted Attraction

Theodore Stirling was a beloved child star before he could tie his shoes. Now he’s a jaded director desperate to outrun his legacy. His immersive theatre company is on the brink of collapse, and one 1920s murder mystery weekend is all that stands between survival and ruin. When the lead actor is injured days before opening night, Theo is forced to take to the spotlight himself.

Opposite him? BAFTA winner Beth Kingsbury, British stage and screen's rising star with offers flooding in. She should be signing the deal that secures her stardom. Instead, she's honouring an old promise, stepping into the rehearsal room expecting nostalgia and finding a connection that refuses to stay on script. 

With every scene, the balance shifts: Beth pushes, Theo yields, until surrender feels less like defeat and more like craving. She doesn't follow direction. She takes the lead.

For Theo, control has always meant survival. For Beth, taking control is finally freedom. As their slow burn ignites into undeniable heat, they'll have to decide what matters more: the parts they're playing, or the truth they can't rehearse.

He's lost in her spotlight. She's found in his surrender.
