Anthony O'Malley is a vain and ageing classically trained actor who laments the fading of his 'glorious past', when he made a decent living from voiceovers and American TV. O'Malley prouds himself on being the self styled mentor to Tom, a young and aspiring thespian whose career is going nowhere more exciting than failing a humiliating audition for a bad sausage ad.

Stuck in a rut and earning a pittance in an hilariously misconceived Dublin production of Shakespeare's Richard III, the pair plan to swindle some loot from a gormless criminal by posing as a gangster hood.

But what should have been a simple one stop trip to easy cash turns into a spiral of cover ups which see Tom, with the help of his niece Mary, having to adopt more and more characters to prevent his cover being blown. And then if things weren't bad enough, Tom falls for the beautiful daughter of their victim and the real London gangster turns up on the scene.
