The Plot…

Larry, Curly and Moe are radio station janitors. They begin playing with the equipment and lip syncing to records.  As Curly pretends to sing an opera song, Larry and Moe dress him as a woman.  A rich lady enters and believes it is “Señorita Cucaracha” singing and hires her to sing at a dinner party that evening.  The Boys think it’s easy money and show up with Curly in drag and the hidden record.  What could go wrong?

Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…

Co-star Christine McIntyre does her actual singing!

Micro-Phonies earns 3 of 5 stars.
