One actor's desperate attempts to get the life he believes he deserves. Steven Toast is a RADA trained actor living in the heart of Soho's theatre land.

With the misguided help of his inept agent Jane Ploughand his idiosyncratic flatmate Ed Howzer-Black we watch Toast's desperate attempts to get the woman, job and life he adamantly thinks he deserves.
