With too much time and money on her hands, the recently widowed Laura Henderson (Dench) decides to buy a run-down theater, The Windmill. She hires Vivian Van Damm (Hoskins) to manage the place, but the two strong personalities clash and can't seem to agree on anything. The shows at The Windmill are at first a hit, but when other theaters start copying Van Damm's presentations, attendance begins to decline. Realizing that she has to come up with something new, special, and exciting to bring back the crowds, "Mrs. Henderson Presents" Nudity on her stage. Inspired by true events. (Tricia Spears)
