Back Stage

In this hilarious two-reel silent comedy, Roscoe Arbuckle and Buster Keaton star as stagehands trying to keep a chaotic theater show on track after their eccentric performers rebel against them. As they frantically try to save the day, Fatty and Buster don drag and perform an elaborate dance act, complete with no-handed cartwheels in drag, all while dealing with a strongman who wreaks havoc backstage and a heckling dancer in the audience. Despite the show's many mishaps, the audience is won over by the performers' goofiness, leading to a thrilling finale where Fatty and Buster team up to take down the angry strongman and save the day.
