The story

Gordon Miller, a flat-broke theatrical producer, whose staff includes Harry Binelli and Faker Englund, is told by his brother-in-law Joseph Gribble, manager of the White Way Hotel, that he and his cast of twenty-two actors, who have run up a bill of $1,200, must leave the hotel immediately or face the wrath of supervising director Gregory Wagner, who has arrived to inspect the books. Miller has hidden the cast and crew of his play, Hail and Farewell, in the empty hotel ballroom. Miller plans to skip out on the hotel bill when he receives word that one of his actresses, Christine Marlowe, has found a financial backer for the play.
