Let's misbehave! A machine-gun burst of songs from the Roaring Twenties heats up Woody Allen's hilarious musical comedy about mobsters mixed up in the theatre. When a gangster promises to produce a young playwright's new script, the string attached is the crook's no-talent girlfriend.

This song-and-dance spin on the hit film will leave you sitting on top of the world.
