From the “marvelous” mind of creator Roger Bean, comes another trip to Springfield where we meet the “Crooning Crabcakes,” the boy group banned from the Springfield High School prom which made it possible for “The Marvelous Wonderettes” to perform there.

Now in an era before “American Idol,” and “Star Search,” the guys get one more chance at fame and fortune as Denny and his friend Eugene form a singing group so they can enter and win the local radio contest on Big Whopper Radio and realize their dreams of making it to the big time!

With the help of their best friend Wally and their new friend Skip, this is the best quartet of singers since, well, you-know-who!

Trouble comes in the form of Lois, who arrives to help put some polish on the group but who also broke Eugene's heart many years before.

As Eugene falls apart, Skip, Wally and Denny fall in love - and hilarity and heartaches ensue.

Will Lois and one of the boys find true love? Will these delightfully goofy guys be able to pull it together and win the contest?
