Bob Gordon is staging a new Broadway Show, but he is short of money. He gets an offer of money by the young widow Lillian, if she can dance in his new show. Bert Keeler, a newspaper man, gets this information and is writing about this in his column in an slightly unfriendly way. Gordons old class mate Irene Forster, a tap dancer from Albany also tries to get the leading role in this show, but Lillian insists in getting this part herself. So Irene Forster, Bert Keeler and Gordons secretary Kitty start a little game to get Irene the leading role.
Young Broadway impresario Bob Gordon is mounting his next Broadway musical, "Broadway Rhythm". Behind the scenes, he is trying to find backers for the show. He may have found all the money he needs from widowed Park Avenue socialite, Lillian Brent. However, Lillian has ulterior motives of her own in that she wants the lead as opposed to Bobs want for a name to star, she ultimately giving him two weeks to find that star or else she gets the part. Concurrently, Irene Foster, Bobs high school sweetheart, arrives from Albany in her want to be on Broadway, she and Bob who, in high school, had the dream of producing and starring in their own shows. Bob, who has not seen Irene in five years since high school, initially doesnt recognize her, and when he finally does, wants to dissuade her, a sweet girl, from getting caught up in the Broadway racket. What happens with the show is affected by columnist and radio personality Bert Keeler - the voice of Broadway - who is ordered by his boss to report on more salacious activities on the Great White Way than the warm fuzzies he is used to reporting. Through his underling Snoop, Bert believes that Bob is solely romancing Lillian for her money and will drop her like a hot potato once he gets her money and the show off the ground, which is truer than Bob would like to admit. Bert reporting such may threaten her backing and thus the show. But with the help of Bobs faithful secretary Kitty Corbett who wants to see Irene succeed, Irene may be able to use Berts column to her advantage not only for a job in the chorus, but the lead itself.
