Synopsis by Steve Huey
This film gives a fictionalized version of how the popular real-life radio program of the title began. A promoter has an idea for a show devoted to various country musicians, and an ad agency owner is interested. The promoter goes down South, finds some talented acts, and brings them back to Chicago, but the owner has changed his mind. The musicians pose as the owner's servants and wow him with a show to end all shows, and "National Barn Dance" is born.
