Synopsis:
When harassed advertising executive Timothy Westerby hits his head on the morning of his daughter's society wedding, he awakes to find himself in the company of Polly Perkins, a 1920's Flapper girl straight out of his current advertising campaign. This fiendishly clever farce pulls out all the stops as friends and family attempt to lead Timothy back to reality and his daughter down the aisle.

Judy Westerby: The Bride - Female 20's, not particularly glamourous

Bill Shorter: Tim's Business Parter - Male 40's, handsome and rakish.
