Storyline
A timid professor inherits a large sum of money and decides to fund a terrible musical.
Obsessed with the Classics, Professor Post, an unworldly Greek scholar, needs to find some friends and reevaluate his life's priorities. Then, while in grave need of a change, the conservative academic is thrilled to discover that he has inherited a life-changing sum of money: his golden ticket to a new world full of adventure and excitement. And as Post decides to put the inheritance to good use by sponsoring a small dancing troupe, the sky is the limit. Will the unsmiling professor with a heart of gold and his Ancient-Greece-inspired act take Broadway by storm?
