A show business family leaves the Great White Way and heads to a farm in New England. What results are the difficulties they have before they are accepted by the community.
SHIRLEY TEMPLE is 12 in this musical. It re-uses footage from some of her earlier films in a montage to show her character growing up on stage.

My cynical take on it:
Spoiler:

The locals prove to be narrow-minded and even greedy but have good reason to be irritated by the city-slicker interlopers who are pushy, arrogant, and constantly clamoring for attention. They should have stayed on Broadway! If they really want to raise their daughter in a small town they should learn to keep quiet themselves and not be such show-offs. It is precisely the annoying "look at me! look at me!" people who LEAVE small towns with stars in their eyes for fame, and THEY already had it! Nyah!

In picture #4, I show Shirley wryly commenting on her parents' plans, "Don't you think I'm a little young to be considering getting married?" Funnily enough, pictures 5, 6, and 8 show Shirley Mills in a small role. She is most famous here at FLM for her lead role in Child Bride (1938). As one of the town girls in "Young People" she is still emotionally childish but much more sophisticated in speech and dress. ;)
