Nato sul palcoscenico, George Cohan (Cagney) vi trascorre la vita formando con i genitori e la sorella un applaudito quartetto. Passato dalla provincia a Broadway, raggiunge un'immensa celebrità componendo, nel 1917, la canzone "Over There", che diventa l'inno ufficiale delle truppe e che fa di lui quasi un eroe nazionale. Con la smobilitazione il successo non cala e Cohan allestisce spettacoli sempre più ricchi ed eleganti.
