Summary:
Archaeologist Andrew Larabee tunnels below an English meadow, seeking a rare historical relic. His shoveling takes him back to the surface, and into the lions' cage during a circus act. Just like that, a star - or at least a Joey (clown), is born. The effusive star unleases his singing, swooning and jesting talents in this bright musical-comedy tale of circus extravaganza and romantic complications.
