The story

Talented vaudeville family the Monahans have one very big problem in the form of patriarch Pete, that his heavy alcoholism has gotten the performing clan blacklisted from nearly every significant venue. With little choice but to break away from Pete, his children, Jimmy and Patsy, devise their own act and take it on the road. The troupe enjoys some success, which motivates Pete to sober up.
