The story

A group of widely divergent characters meet up with a broken-down touring concert-party, throw in their lot with them, and eventually triumph after temporary setbacks. This British musical-comedy follows an unlikely trio as they try to revive the fortunes of the floundering theatrical troupe. School teacher Inigo Jolifant with his talent for songwriting, and recently unemployed Jess Oakroyd with his theatrical ambitions, together persuade Miss Trant, an older single woman looking for adventure, to fund them as they attempt to bring "The Dinky Doos" back into the spotlight.
