Synopsis: Help! That high school drama teacher, famous for disaster-prone productions is back! This time she has written a sequel to her first catastrophe, Cinderstein. But this one is even worse. As if Combining Snow White with the horror story of The Mummy wasn’t ridiculous enough, the actress playing Snow is obsessed with kissing, while the actor playing Charming is shy and has never been kissed. The Evil Queen can’t get the Mirror to enter on her cue, the blind extra and the deaf extra are have trouble communicating with each other, the assistant archeologist is obsessed with doing stunts, and the all the mummies’ costumes are lost and have to be substituted with toilet paper. On top of these production nightmares, the school principal keeps interrupting to enforce preposterous school rules and force a Danish foreign exchange student, who doesn’t speak English, into the play against her will. When Charming is accidentally knocked unconscious, the actors have to improvise as several of them try to replace him at the same time, changing this insane production into something so hideous that it’s beyond even the director’s recognition.
