Synopsis
Two sharpie promoters put on a show they believe is so bad it will not play more than one day and they therefore will not have to pay the long list of investors, i.e, suckers and buyers. But one of the investors dies intestate and his interests pass to the state. The governor's secretary engages new talent and a new orchestra, in order to make the show successful and a profitable investment for the state.
