The residents of Blaine, Missouri, are gearing up for their sesquicentennial celebrations, featuring the original musical "Red, White and Blaine". The production is led by Corky St. Clair, a former New York theater professional, and high school music teacher Lloyd Miller. Despite having a "talented" cast of locals, Corky and Lloyd are unaware of their own lack of talent. The cast and crew are particularly eager for Mort Guffman's review, a representative of the prestigious Oppenheimer Organization, as they believe a favorable review will send the production to Broadway.
