Viola and Sebastian, twin pop stars in the 1980s, have a freak tour bus accident on their way to perform at the Illyrian Music Festival and lose each other.
Having no where to go and being pursued by rabid fans, Viola hides out in Rock Superstar Orsino's band as a male roadie.
Orsino sends Viola, known to him as Cesario, to woo Olivia from the pop/punk band Olivia and the Wailers for him, but Olivia falls for Cesario/Viola instead!
In the meantime, Sebastian stumbles into Illyria and upon Olivia, who believes him to be Cesario/Viola, and immediately sweeps Sebastian off his feet.
Will our lovers find a happy ending?
Will Olivia's drunken band members drive away Olivia's uptight manager?
Will Sebastian and Viola be reunited?
