Storyline
Fred and Lilly are a divorced pair of actors who are brought together by Cole Porter who has written a musical version of The Taming of the Shrew. Of course, the couple seem to act a great deal like the characters they play. A fight on the opening night threatens the production, as well as two thugs who have the mistaken idea that Fred owes their boss money and insist on staying next to him all night.

Trivia
This was Ann Miller's favorite role. It was expanded for the film: on stage, Lois does not sing "Too Darn Hot" which is sung by Paul's dresser, who is an African-American. See more »Goofs
Continuity: During the "Where Is The Life That Late I Led" number Howard Keel leaves the stage and walks out on a long runway that extends into the audience. This runway is not visible before or after the number though there are several shots from the stage into the audience. See more »Soundtracks
