Groucho Marx and Carmen Miranda pair up for showbiz shenanigans in this screwball musical comedy set in New York's most legendary nightclub! Groucho and Carmen are an acting team in love - and out of work. Until Groucho, pretending to be Carmen's agent, books her the dazzling Copacabana club as the singing-dancing "Brazillian Bombshell!" When the impressed club owner asks Groucho for more acts, the zany, would-be agent gives them an ad-lib song-and-dance. His brazen brainstorm: he'll have Carmen disguise herself as a different singer - "Mademoiselle Fifi!" It's twice the salary...but double the trouble. Because the Copa's owner falls head-over-heals for the phony Fifi. And suddenly it's a club-full of comic complications as the frantic duo face the most outrageous acting assignment of their careers!
