In 1988, before cell phones and social media] twenty-four American high school drama students plan to tour Great Britain for two weeks during the summer. Besides visiting castles, museums and Shakespeare's birthplace, they dearly want to meet some English teenagers and spend an afternoon hanging out. Unfortunately their pack tour has very little wiggle-room for an unscripted activity, and the teen's parents want everything to have an educational value. The teens decide to learn the English game of cricket in order to meet their goal. Their only problem is that they have no cricket gear, no coach, no practice field, and no clue how to play this complex game. Thanks to a lot of help from the international cricket fraternity on three continents, the British Embassy and the BBC, Team SOS [short for Shakespeareans Over Seas] actually make it to a cricket field in Oxford, England where they will play the game of their dreams. Their story is a hilarious footnote in cricket history.
