Dotty and Denise are ejected from their apartment for practicing their dancing. Determined to get jobs on Broadway, they try to find an agent but don't have enough money. They wind up hiring the "Fly By Night Theatrical Agency"--the "agents" take their last $35 and send the duo to a theatre with the promise of a job. The theatre is staging an opera and Dotty and Denise bring down the show with their tap dancing antics. They wind up in their old apartment, promising the landlady not to dance any more. Now they're singers.
