This is an unpretentious teen-oriented musical with enough songs and dances (including that of the title) to keep the younger set entertained. As is usual in these types of films, the storyline is primarily an excuse to bring in as much singing and dancing talent as can fit into the running time. In this case, Johann Ebeseder (Paul Hoerbiger) is the manager of a theater that is about to buckle under. The powers-that-be want to tear the building down, but when one of these men meets Johann's granddaughter, he is smitten by her charms. That offers some hope of fighting the establishment. Then a disastrous fire settles the problem of the theater -- though one has not yet heard the last from Johann. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Meanwhile, her uncle is suspicious so he hires a detective to find out about what his niece is really doing, which happens to be impersonating her imaginary singer and being herself in contradictory and amusing situations. Soon the detective and the niece make contact and take a liking to each other, complicating matters considerably. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide
