Summary:
"Lily just knows she has the talent to light up the Great White Way, so when a big Broadway producer ... visits her [Indiana] hometown, she expends all the candlepower of her charisma to impress him. He's not impressed. He heads back to New York and Lily follows, thumbing her way east on what she's sure is a one-way trip to instant stardom"--Container.
