The Biggest Show On Earth!

ComedyDrama

Things get tough for Carol and her showgirl pals, Trixie and Polly, when the Great Depression kicks in and all the Broadway shows close down. Wealthy songwriter Brad saves the day by funding a new Depression-themed musical for the girls to star in, but when his stuffy high-society brother finds out and threatens to disown Brad, Carol and her gold-digging friends scheme to keep the show going, hooking a couple of millionaires along the way.

VIBE

A dazzling, fast-talking pre-code musical that's surprisingly sharp and witty. It’s a whirlwind of showgirls, catchy tunes, and Depression-era grit, all wrapped in a glamorous, optimistic package. Pure escapist fun with a knowing wink.
