In August of 1946, an entertainer by the name of Rags Ragland passed away, leaving not only many an empty heart but also a colleague in need: his comedy act with best pal Phil Silvers was set to open at the Copacabana the following Friday.

If Phil can't deliver a show to the owner of the Copa on time, he'll be on the hook for the whole cost of the run, which he couldn't cover if he worked another hundred years.

He's lost his friend and co-star, so he's got no show and he can't cancel.

In despair, Phil calls one of the two people he knows can make miracles happen. Then he calls the other.

Before he knows it, the Friday night curtain is rising at the Copa and the house is full. The show is going on, as it must.

But what the audience will see, who will join him on stage in support, and whether Phil can survive the stress of the evening without a miracle of his own is the story of FOR RAGS.
