I just found out about a movie I didn't know about of Shannyn's. I am currently following the Broadway actor Roger Bart who is playing Doc Brown in Back To The Future The Musical and when I was looking up his work I came across this movie he did with Shannyn. Here is the description of it from IMDB

A dark comedy about a disgruntled summer-stock actor who contemptuously disregards the superstition surrounding Shakespeare's tragedy, Macbeth. By doing so, he unleashes the curse of The Scottish Play and wreaks havoc on the company.

I haven't seen it yet and it's too late for me to start a movie tonight but they say you can see it for free on Freevee or Tubi or Roku on Peacock if you have a subscription or rent on Prime. I will try to see it this weekend.

Okay, so I watched it. I enjoyed and she does have a big part in it. Saying that I'm a complete theater nerd and I'm not sure if you don't like movies about theater or movies about how quirky actors in theater can be, you may not like it as much as I did. However Carol Kane having a small part as an Over The Top washed up actress was hysterical. It is about a summer stock troupe performing Shakespeare. Interesting behind the scenes note, the writer/director of the movie used to be a summer stock actor with Roger Bart (my current celebrity crush and the lead in the movie) thirty years earlier. He said he hadn't spoken to Roger in years and when he reached out to him, Roger called him right back, read the script and agreed to play in it.
