The show is set in the early 1930s just before the end of the Prohibition era. Two male jazz musicians, Joe and Jerry, witness the mob commit a crime at the Speakeasy where they are playing. Rather than have the mobster to try to kill them, the musicians go on the run.
They put on women’s clothing and, though they're cross-dressing, are able to join a touring all-women swing big band. While touring, the two fall for the band’s singer, Sugar Kane. They must keep their true identities hidden, but they both hope to find romance Sugar Kane.
Whilst touring, romances form that threaten to expose Joe and Jerry as men. The gangsters and the FBI become involved, recognizing Jerry and Joe from their tap-dancing routines, further complicating the groups touring to performances and its ability to receive funding from new investors.
Jerry, who now must pass off as Daphne, falls in love with one of the investors, leading to a planned wedding.
