Movie Dumpster

Theatrical director Andrea Caldwell (Carolyn Seymour) finds herself and her co-workers trapped in the dreams of weaselly stagehand Otto Schrog (Lou Cutell). Able to control reality in his dreams, Otto forces his prisoners put on a poorly-written play in which he is the star, having them cater to his every whim and fulfill his fantasies. Eventually, Andrea and the others formulate a plan to awaken Otto and return to the real world. Written and directed by Timna Ramon, based on a short story by Barbara Paul. Original Air Date: January 19, 1986
