Synopsis:
Put together your crew and prepare to be double-crossed, it’s time for a good old-fashioned Hollywood heist! When the star of the upcoming film Casino Heist gets caught up in a ridiculous scandal, the movie seems doomed. Her sardonic stylist Jamie and efficient assistant Kit fear their careers are, too, so it seems like a good time to get out of the movie biz for good...ideally with millions of dollars’ worth of diamonds. Only one problem: The heist must happen in plain sight, on the red carpet of the movie premiere. What could go wrong? In every twist of Red Carpet Heist, a flexible ensemble pulls the ultimate comedy con with minimal set and maximum mayhem.
