Overview
Rachel arrives in New York from her Amish community intent on becoming a dancer. Unfortunately Billy Minsky's Burlesque is hardly the place for her Dances From The Bible. But the show's comedian Raymond sees a way of wrong-footing the local do-gooders by announcing the new Paris sensation "Mme Fifi" and putting on Rachel's performance as the place is raided. All too complicated, the more so since her father is scouring the town for her and both Raymond and his straight-man Chick are falling for Rachel.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A fizzy period comedy about an innocent Amish girl stumbling into the world of burlesque in 1920s New York, caught between her strict family and her newfound freedom. It's a light-hearted romp that finds charm in the collision of cultures and the messy business of growing up.
