In this drama, a married team of vaudeville dancers break up when the wife gets a real acting job. Time passes and the duo eventually reconcile with she as a rising star, and he a prop man. They are brought together when their daughter is mortally wounded. When her daddy sings, the girl is miraculously healed. This was Universal's first all-sound musical.
