What happens

The Dancers is a 1930 American pre-Code melodrama, produced and distributed by Fox Film Corporation, and directed by Chandler Sprague. It is based on a 1923 West End play of the same title by Viola Tree and Gerald du Maurier. The film marks the feature sound film debut of actress Mrs. Patrick Campbell. The setting was shifted from the play's South America to Canada. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
