The story follows mild-mannered Professor Hobart Frisbee (Danny Kaye) and his seven fellow academics as they live cut off from the world for 9 years in the Totten Foundation's Victorian mansion in New York City. They have been working on a comprehensive musical encyclopedia, but when two window washers (Buck and Bubbles) come seeking help with a radio quiz, they discover that there are many forms of popular music they know nothing about. This leads Hobart on a journey to explore the music scene and invite all the artists he meets to come to the Foundation.

Things get complicated when nightclub singer Honey Swanson (Virginia Mayo) needs a place to hide from the police, who want to question her about her gangster boyfriend Tony Crow (Steve Cochran). Honey invites herself into the sheltered household, introducing the professors to the latest music and teaching them about swing, jive, jump, blues, and more. As the professors become entangled in Honey's problems, they also become entangled in her love life.

With catchy songs like 'A Song Is Born', 'Daddy-O', 'I'm Getting Sentimental Over You', 'Flying Home', and 'Redskin Rumba', this movie is sure to have you tapping your feet and singing along. But it's not just about the music, as the innocent and lovable Hobart (who graduated from Princeton at age 13) falls for Honey and must navigate through her complicated relationships and past.
