The Marc Pease Experience

“Hold your applause.”

Marc Pease (Jason Schwartzman) still hangs around his old high school in Wilmington, North Carolina, eight years after he starred in its musicals. He drifts back toward Meg Brickman (Anna Kendrick), now a student there, and toward his former mentor Jon Gribble (Ben Stiller). Todd Louiso's film is about a man who can't leave the one place where people once applauded him.
