But he quickly changes his mind about marriage when he falls for Italian ballerina Madeleine Morando. The two marry, and she joins his act.

Sadly, she dies while they are still young, and Eddie is forced to raise the kids by himself -- often with disastrous results. Eventually, the entertainer is persuaded to have his brood join him on the road; and a popular new vaudeville act is born. [More]
