四個天真、天兵的小丑,組成了一個彆腳劇團,創團至今從未有過成功的作品,每次的演出不是觀眾稀稀落落、就是演出狀況百出。在劇團的生死存亡之際,團長突然想到:許多劇團只要一演出《白蛇傳》幾乎都場場爆滿,那我們也來演,不就能靠票房來拯救劇團了呢?

於是,這群天真的小丑們,便抱著背水一戰的決心,勤苦學戲、排練,妄想挑戰演出堪稱「表演藝術聖母峰」的京劇,靠《白蛇傳》挽救劇團命運!

時間很快地來到了首演這天……

原本預期不會有什麼觀眾的他們,甚至連開演時間都搞錯了!而無意間走到舞台上來的小丑們,竟看見台下坐了滿滿的觀眾,這讓他們滿是驚慌、亂了方寸!只得在兵荒馬亂下,趕緊開演!

究竟他們會端出一部怎麼樣的作品呢?
這群天兵的的冒險嘗試是會一敗塗地,還是會出人意料地優雅落地呢?

最後,觀眾會不會愛上他們呢?
我們劇場見分曉!

This is a troupe of four naive and blundering clowns which has never had a successful production and whose performances were either sparsely attended or very poorly staged.

Finally, the troupe is faced with a business crisis, and they are grappling with how to save the troupe’s fate. Then it occurs to the director: “Many theater companies would almost always have sold outs when they perform the classic play, The Legend of the White Snake, so let’s give it a go. Maybe we would get a full house and our ensemble would be saved!”

The clowns then set out on a decisive battle to challenge themselves to “mission impossible” by performing Peking Opera—the Mount Everest of the performing arts—a piece titled ‘The Legend of the White Snake’ to save the troupe’s life.

Time is fast approaching for the day of the premiere. Expecting a small audience, they even get the opening time wrong! The clowns, who unwittingly walk onto the stage, see a packed house, which leaves them terrified and totally disorientated! But they have to get ready for the show…

Will their attempts at risky endeavors be a disastrous flop, or will they end up surprisingly gracefully? Will the audience finally fall in love with them? Let’s find out in the theater!
