Will, a poor player who bears an uncanny resemblance to Shakespeare, auditions on stage in front of Peter, a busy producer with his nose in the trade papers, hardly noticing Will's extraordinary performance. Will, using the prop of a life-sized doll and changing costumes with magical speed, acts out brief scenes at the heart of Romeo and Juliet, Richard III, As You Like It, Hamlet, Antony and Cleopatra, Othello, Titus Andronicus, Merry Wives, the Tempest, the Winter's Tale, and other of the Bard's plays.

Based on the Frederick Burr Opper's "Alphonse and Gaston" comic strip.
Las Vegas showroom magician Cris Johnson has a secret which torments him: he can see a few minutes into the future. Sick of the examinations he underwent as a child and the interest of the government and medical establishment in his power, he lies low under an assumed name in Vegas, performing cheap tricks and living off small-time gambling "winnings." But when a terrorist group threatens to detonate a nuclear device in Los Angeles, government agent Callie Ferris must use all her wiles to capture Cris and convince him to help her stop the cataclysm.
