by Bert Furioli and Butch Maxwell
The Kit Kat Klub used to be the top cat of the Poconos lounges,
but now, in 1963, owner Sid Geaser is in serious financial trouble. His
permanent headliner, Crooner Newt Diamond is past his prime, if he ever
had one, and he isn't drawing in the crowds like he used to.
Desperate to get help, Sid tries to borrow money from a successful
Las Vegas singer Johnny Rival, who once performed at his club.
Meanwhile Newt still believes he is Mr. Personality on stage, but
offstage he is too painfully shy to ask a girl out. He is in love with Sid's
niece, exotic dancer Misty Storm, but her past includes a teenage betrothal
to an awkward nerd named Claude.
Before the night is over - it's a battle of the Lounge Lizards - and
somebody will be knocking them dead!
