At the Circus
Keep the world laughing!
Directed by Edward Buzzell
Produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer
A lighthearted, music-filled circus romp built on slapstick comedy and ensemble camaraderie, where lovable characters band together to outwit a scheming villain.
Jeff Wilson, the owner of a small circus, owes his partner Carter $10,000. Before Jeff can pay, Carter's accomplices steal the money so he can take over the circus. Antonio Pirelli and Punchy, who work at the circus, together with lawyer Loophole try to find the thief and get the money back.
