Confusion comedy with musical interludes around a carnival ball, to dare the pretty shop assistant for a fashion store with one of the best gowns of her salon and posing in her embarrassment as the wife of a guest. - Harmlessly entertaining comedy, a little bit too poorly to bring to bear the first-time meeting of three most popular Austrian comic specialists Moser-Slezak-Romanowsky at that time appropriately.

Direktor Saran
Knox owns half of the Circus Saran and acts as a clown there. He hides his circus life from his daughter and is very embarrassed when his daughter finds out his true profession.
