Behind the scenes
- The episode title is a paraphrased quote of "The play's the thing", from William Shakespeare's Hamlet.
- The school has a separate building just for the cafeteria.
- Bestmore also calls his school the Ferdinand Bestmore School of Acting.
Errors
- I know Kelly doesn't have any friends of her own, but her hanging out at her sister's school just to have lunch is too much. She has a cheek to complain about the food, despite the fact she probably shouldn't even be there?
- The fake cliff in the theater is way too big to realistically fit on the stage.
- It's unclear what snapped Bestmore out of it.
