Varsity Show (1937)

Plot Summary

Winfield College students who are trying to put together the annual varsity show come into conflict with their faculty advisor, a stodgy old professor whose ideas are hopelessly out of date, and who won't even let the new "swing" music be played in the show. They decide to contact a former student who is now a big Broadway star and have him direct their show. What they don't know is that this "star's" last three shows were big flops.
