Set in 1934, Victor and his wife have all but shut the door on the past that gave them their notoriety. ‘The Extraordinary Ordinaries’ were more than just Vaudeville darlings, they were a national treasure; a husband and wife team complemented by their son, Timothy and ventriloquist figure, Joey. But when tragedy rips their lives apart, Victor descends further into depression and searches for comfort in the only friend he believes he has left.
Show Me is, at its heart, about the disintegration of a once close family. The husband clings to the old act in an effort to save the marriage, when it’s ironically the very thing that’s ripping them apart.
