Veteran actor David Muir is preparing to make his first entrance on the opening night of a play when he collapses. The opening is postponed and he is rushed to hospital. Diagnosed with terminal cancer, he becomes embittered with his lot. Then a nurse named Sally enters his life. She is much younger than he but love gradually blooms between them. His illness goes into remission and life takes on a rosy hue until, just prior to his discharge from hospital, Sally is admitted as a patient.
When David Muir is unable to go on an actor friend of his, Douglas, jumps up from the audience and improvises while the producers have to find out if David is well enough to come back on. Douglas’s improvs take the form of anecdotes, organizing audience participation in a quiz and an old fashioned sing=song. Woven into the story is a one-time relationship between Douglas and the stage-manager, Maggie.

But his passion was his church and after ordination he went to China, the land of his birth, to serve as a missionary. When the Japanese Army invaded China he sent his wife and children home to Winnipeg, for their safety. He himself intended to follow as soon as he could but the Japanese captured and interred him. He was a tower of strength in the camp but just prior to the end of the war he died of a brain tumor.
