Synopsis
The cartoon takes place at a nightclub for penguins (and walruses). The club is called The Club Iceberg. The stage show includes a Bing Crosby-like penguin.
Reception
'Motion Picture Exhibitor' (April 15, 1938): "A musical revue at an Artie Penguin Night Club. "Fats Waller" pounds out music. There is an amusing little double talking M.C. Animation is very smooth, music is hot, tuneful. This constitutes a moderately funny cartoon for all classes."
