Set in the roaring twenties amidst the glitz and glamor of the Prohibition era, Nice Work If You Can Get It is a screwball musical comedy bursting with infectious Gershwin tunes. We meet Jimmy Winter, a wealthy playboy with a habit of marrying chorus girls. On the verge of another wedding to secure his inheritance, Jimmy encounters the tough-as-nails bootlegger Billie Bendix.

Sparks fly as these two polar opposites clash and a hilarious game of cat-and-mouse ensues. Jimmy, smitten by Billie's fiery spirit, tries to win her over, while Billie uses his luxurious beachfront property to hide her illegal operation. The plot thickens with the arrival of Jimmy's disapproving fiancée and her entourage, leading to a whirlwind of mistaken identities, romantic entanglements, and tap-dancing mayhem. With classic Gershwin hits like "Fascinating Rhythm," "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off," and the title song, Nice Work If You Can Get It is a non-stop party that celebrates the joy of music, witty banter, and the pursuit of love in the most unexpected places.
