As a friend completes work on a new musical, Bertie takes the opportunity to join the production on a tour across the United States. However, a letter from Aunt Agatha warning Wooster of family friend Cyril Bassington-Bassington's "theatrical proclivities" is not delivered, dropping Bertie right in it.

Further details

Lady Bassington-Bassington is adamant her son Cyril will not go on the stage, so she sends him to Bertie in New York. But there's trouble when Cyril lands a part in a musical and Aunt Agatha decides to visit Manhattan.
