The musical revolves around the antics of Mame, a fun-loving, wealthy eccentric with a flare for life and a razor-sharp wit. Her life is suddenly changed when she becomes the guardian of her late brother's only child, Patrick. Mame’s adventures take us from the roaring 20s through the Stock Market crash, including being rescued by a wealthy Southern plantation owner. Through it all, Mame manages to keep things under control and, with help from her dearest friend, Vera, she helps keep things at 3 Beekman Place a rousing free-for-all.
