The seven dwarfs' cottage is transformed into a traveling medicine show run by Dr. Alfonzo, a failed Shakespearean actor, and his eccentric companions: Chief Tonka, an Irish Indian with a flair for drama, and Billy Bug, a dancing dwarf. They peddle Chief Tonka's Elixir of Life, a potent liquor claimed to reverse aging.
