Stompin at the Savoy (1992)

"Manhattan 1939 After the Depression Before the War If you had ambition and could dance it was the only place to be"
Stompin at the Savoy
As the Harlem Renaissance flourishes in jazzy New York City Pauline Esther and Alice struggle to survive By day they toil at dreary jobs dreaming of stardom riches and happiness By night they dance their troubles away at the famous Savoy Ballroom But when World War II appears on the horizon the girls find their fortunes unfolding too unevenly to reconcile and they inevitably begin to drift apart
