Tells a story of sex, scandal and showbiz in war-torn 1940s London. Northern songbird Maggie Brown has moved to London in search of fame. She auditions at every cabaret bar, with her songwriter George, but nobody wants their act. Things aren't much better with her boyfriend Tom. And her younger brother's missing in action. Meanwhile, George has problems of his own fighting to make ends meet as a Jewish refugee in a city under the hostilities of war. Everything changes when Maggie and George are picked up by wealthy nightclub owner Sir Frank. Soon 'Miss Nightingale' explodes onto the stage - shocking society with her outrageous outfits and saucy songs. She takes the West End by storm. But backstage, secrets are lurking that prove far more devastating than the Blitz.
