After four flops in a row, the theater impresario Oscar Jaffee and his entourage are on the run. Desperately trying to revive his career, he booked a car on the Twentieth Century Limited, the world's most famous express train, to New York.
In the next car resides Lily Garland, her former lover turned Hollywood starlet. Oscar only has 16 hours to persuade Lily to come back on stage for her next show.
Religious fanatic Letitia Peabody Primrose helps fund the show. Jaffee's dreams turn into a glorious, hilarious act that needs to be rocked to keep everyone happy.
