3000 people are not gathered in the Asteroid Theatre on the night of the big award show. In fact, not a single soul could attend The Great Grand Greatness Awards. Not the host, not the presenters, not the winners, not the bands, not the products in the ‘commercials’. This presents a mounting challenge to host May Lifschitz, who finds the show descending into bizarreness and pure poetic chaos.
