Theatre for Scandal is a comedy loosely inspired by Sheridan’s School for Scandal. The central character is an outwardly very flamboyant gay actor whose fellow actors begin to spread a rumor that he is secretly straight. Everyone gossips but in the theatre world it's amplified. Rumors and scandal can sometimes be fun, but at whose expense? Ultimately, you never really know what's true or false, so sometimes it's best to be silent.
