Actor Jack joins a panto tour of care homes, and he is confronted with the reality of life, his future and where it ends.

Jack is an unfulfilled actor who is desperate for some meaningful work. He agrees to join fellow thespian Lauren on a pantomime tour of the north east. Just one catch: it’s an off-season tour of dementia homes, where the audience tend to be more interested in daytime TV than in Jack and Lauren’s contemporary interpretation of Alice in Wonderland.

Lauren remains relentlessly upbeat, but Jack fears he’s sunk to a new low... until he is unexpectedly confronted with the reality of life, his future and where it ends.
