Fed up with the pressures and demands of her acting career, the
famous Myra Marlowe leases a house in the tiny New England hamlet
of Beaver Haven, and settles down to write her autobiography.
She is successful in turning aside the offers pressed on her by her
long-time agent, but dealing with her nosy, omnipresent neighbors is
a different matter. In an attempt to shoo them away, and gain some
privacy, Myra invents a mad, homicidal sister--who is kept locked in
an upstairs room, but who occasionally escapes long enough to scare
off uninvited visitors.
The ruse works well, at first, but complications result when the local
handyman develops an affection for "Sister Sadie" (really Myra in a
fright wig) and some of the more officious ladies decide it is their
Christian duty to save the poor demented Sadie's soul. In desperation
Myra announces that her imaginary sibling has suddenly gone off to
Boston--which brings on the sheriff, and the suspicion of murder!
Needless to say, all is straightened out in the end, but the
uproarious doings will keep audiences laughing right up to the final
curtain, and then some.
