The story

Mitch Mason, ex-manager of a once-successful rock band named Jimmy Cook and his Kooks, discovers a dance craze known as the Twist being performed in the small mountain town of Alpine Peaks. He books a band led by Clay Cole and dancers Tina Louden and her brother Larry for a Boston society benefit, and they create a sensation. They are unable to get other bookings, however, because Mitch has spurned the advances of Debbie Marshall, whose father Joe is New York's top talent agent.
