Tess, a fresh-faced young girl from the mythical kingdom of Canada, pursues her twin dreams of children's theatre stardom and love. With her pure heart and plucky personality, Tess braves the treacherous world of sex, drugs and New York children's theatre. In no time, Tess is playing all seven dwarfs at once, marrying the director who discovered her, becoming the new children's theatre It girl, losing her fame and love, and finding it again in the wilds of Buffalo and the arms of a puppeteer. Through the successes and the heartbreaks, Tess never wavers from her dreams or loses her accent.
