With a book by Pulitzer Prize winner Abe Burrows, Can-Can tells the hilarious tale of Paris dance hall owner, La Mome Pistache and her battle with a self-righteous judge, Aristide, who is determined to shut her business down because of the sexy Can Can dance her girls have made the rage of Paris! When Judge Aristide investigates the Bal du Paradis, La Mome Pastache seduces him and the two eventually fall in love. By the time her obscenity charge comes to trial, Aristide has had a change of heart and wins her acquittal.
