In the smoky, booze-fueled world of stand-up comedy, even third-tier comics have big ambitions and egos to match. Though barely a step up from their humble beginnings as the office clown or the funny chick at the title company, their fight for the spotlight is fierce and unrelenting. Equally vicious, however, are the crowds who enjoy their role of judge, jury and executioner, quickly torching new careers as they brutally separate the more polished performers from the nervy amateurs. There is only room at the top for a choice few. A Thousand Times No is the story of a love triangle between a man, a woman, and the spotlight. Tommy Dayton is a small-time comic in the mid-eighties, who is struggling to get to the next level. When he crosses paths with an old friend who is just starting out in the business, he offers to help. But his coaching is so good, he helps her get to where he wants to be. Torn between love and jealousy, he waits for her to stumble. But it is Tommy who falls... for her, and the more she rejects his proposals, the better their lives become.
