Rehearsals ensue amidst rivalries and complaints by cast members about Orson showing up late for rehearsals. Richard falls for 20-year-old production assistant Sonja Jones (Claire Danes) who is not thrilled with Richard because she is overly ambitious and has no time for someone of Richard's low position in the theatrical world. Despite many problems, the show does go on, and Orson does present his ground-breaking production of "Julius Caesar."
