This spectacular production features the tremendous pageantry and color of medieval England and the considerable talents of Danny Kaye. Set in the 12th century, the story revolves around Kaye as a court jester who has become involved with outlaws trying to overthrow the king. His singing, dancing, and clowning keep him one step away from disaster in this fast moving story, but he still finds time to engage in some violent jousting with knights, a few dangerous duels with swordsmen, and rescue damsels in distress. Complemented by six songs, the comedy also includes a supporting cast with Mildred Natwick, Robert Middleton, Cecil Parker, John Carradine, and Edward Ashley.
