Dancing Romeo Synopsis & Summary

Our Gang member Froggy (Billy Laughlin) is in love with pretty ballet student Marilyn (Valerie Lee), but she is dedicated to her art. To win Marilyn's affections, Froggy tries to pass himself off as a master terpsichorean, with the assistance of the other gang members -- and a complicated block-and-tackle system. The pas de deux between youthful ballet dancers Valerie Lee and Bobby Browning is the only memorable aspect of this hackneyed one-reeler. Though not the final Our Gang comedy to be filmed, Dancing Romeo was the last to be released, on April 29, 1944. - Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
