A musical-comedy satire on politics, foreign affairs, and an American abroad. It takes place during the Truman presidency. The main plot centers around Sally Adams who becomes Ambassador of Lichtenburg and ''charms'' the local gentry- especially Cosmo Constanstine- with her undiplomatic manner. The subplot centers around her aide Kenneth Gibson, who is falling in love with the princess (You're Just in Love). Sally also talks with President Truman on the telephone throughout the show.
