Get ready for the Duncan sisters’ first all‑talking, singing, dancing picture. Sisters Casey and Babe work in a department store that stages an annual show. Every act falters until Casey steps in to rescue Babe’s song, turning the performance into a hit. In the final number the store president spots them and fires both on the spot. Showman Benny then books Casey, Babe and their partner Dean into a vaudeville act that becomes popular, but just as stardom looms Dean and Babe quit, leaving Casey to carry on.
