1926. Running a theatre may appear to be all about the showbiz, but times are hard at The Empire. Following a turbulent period, manager Jack Treadwell and his playwright wife Grace know they need to get things back on track - and how better than with the annual pantomime, a new venture, and a talent contest showcasing the best performers around? But could co-owner Lillian Lassiter's new admirer, Grand Duke Nikolai Kuznetsov, be bringing disaster in his wake? Will The Empire be caught up in the scandal surrounding West End star Stella Stanmore? And what are their enemies in Highbridge planning? As the talent contest draws closer, tragedy strikes. Amid the glitz and glamour there are strange goings-on and a plot afoot. Is everything Jack and Grace have worked so hard for about to come crashing down? And could this be curtains for The Empire?
