Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
Mark Berger produced, wrote, and directed this unconvincing, amateurish musical about a clumsy, overweight tap dancer who dreams of success and unwittingly sells his soul to the devil (disguised as a talent agent) in order to realize his dreams. While some of the jokes are more on the mark in the second half of the film, they are not enough to carry the entire 83-minute running time.
