Set in colorful New York during the turn of the last century - The story depicts a very young George M. Cohan (Adam Wylie) before he became the "King of Broadway" and his relationship with two influential vaudeville comedians, whose theatre - The Weber and Fields Broadway Music Hall - was the home to the greatest stars of the day such as Lillian Russell (Dale Kristien) and where New York's social elite were to see or be seen.  The success of the Music Hall fused the ruthless syndicate of the time with envy and a desire to put them out of business.
