Plot

Reporter Ellison; self-important film director Feld; and brash Master Of Ceremonies Colonna arrive in rural Kentucky to cover a local music festival. City boys all; they are suffering from culture shock as they try to adjust to their surroundings. The trio end up inadvertently foiling a plot to steal the Festival's gate receipts. The film is also a showcase for a series of Ed Sullivan-like variety acts.
