So the Orphanage of Love is in trouble. Big, costly trouble. How are those orphans going to raise all that money? It's simple: put on a show! We'll use the modest singing talents of the secretary corps, and we can put a stage in that old barn out back, and surely it won't be too hard to rig up a spotlight or two... This trope was made popular by Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney in the 1930s, but saving the unfortunate through musical theater is a surprisingly resilient Stock Plot. Nothing like a show to bring out The Cast Showoff and showcase their lesser-known talents. It can even work when there's no orphanage to save, as Taxi demonstrated by giving a whole show, in which the main cast performed song and dance numbers. This trope causes no end of frustration for those who actually do work in theater, especially when they have to explain just how long it takes and how much it costs to "just put on a show." Often overlaps with That Reminds Me of a Song, in that said show may involve an excuse for musical numbers that aren't tied to the plot or character development. Subtrope of Show Within a Show. Often overlaps with Saving the Orphanage. Compare Charity Workplace Calendar. |

Babes in Arms, with Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney, of course. And it's hardly the only one they did. In fact, one of the That's Entertainment! films did a Fully Automatic Clip Show where Rooney's characters from his films suggested they put on a show. | |

Are You Being Served? did this quite a few times, usually for Mr. Grace's birthday. In later seasons they seemed to happen more often, seemingly as an excuse to get Mrs Slocombe and Mr Humphries into ridiculous outfits and flamboyant dresses, even if it made no sense in context of the show. | |

One Hundred Men and a Girl: Patsy decides that if she can get John R. Frost to sponsor a concert and Leopold Stokowski to conduct it, she can get work for her unemployed trombone-playing father and all the other starving musicians in his social circle. The rest of the movie is Patsy crisscrossing the city at high speed pestering both frost and Stokowski to back her plan. | |

Parodied in the Scrubs episode "My Life in Four Cameras", in which JD treats a former writer of the sitcom Cheers and imagines what life would be like as a sitcom. One subplot had Dr. Cox try to keep Dr. Kelso from firing Nice Guy Kenny, the newest employee, since the hospital couldn't afford to keep him. There turns out to be a talent show and the prize money is the exact amount of money needed. Kenny (played by Clay Aiken) is a talented singer and wins the talent show. In the real world, Kenny just got fired. | |

Futurama has an episode centered on this trope (trying to save Earth from the TV-addicted Omicronians); Fry even used the trope name directly. In a variation, the purpose of the show isn't to raise money, but to convince the Omicronians to spare the Earth by giving them a satisfactory finale to a sitcom. | |

Shakespeare in Love at some points seems to invoke this trope as a Whole-Plot Reference to the above-mentioned Mickey Rooney / Judy Garland musicals. Notably in one scene where Shakespeare's production of Romeo and Juliet seems doomed (the Master of the Revels orders the Rose Theater closed for casting a woman in the lead role), and a surprise benefactor saves the play (Richard Burbage offers the use of his Curtain Theater) for the stated reason that The Show Must Go On. | |

Played with in the H.I.V.E. Series. Before the first book starts, St. Sebastian's orphanage is falling apart, putting it at risk of being shut down due to no longer being safe. Otto makes up a fake television reality series called Please, Think of the Children and convinces local contractors to lend a hand in fixing the orphanage for free, with the promise of them making it on television. Obviously, they don't. | |

Love Live! tends to use this trope, since most series are about saving the characters' school from closing down. In Love Live!, the storied (read: old) Otonokizaka High School is unable to compete with newer, fancier schools for prospective students. To prevent their school from being shut down, Honoka and her friends form a School Idol group to attract new students to their school. In the sequel, Love Live! Sunshine!!, Chika is inspired to do the same thing to save her failing school. It ends up failing, as there simply aren't enough prospective students in their rural sea-side village. |

The celebrity impersonators decide to put on a show in Mister Lonely. It's not a very good show, and all of three people come to see it. The failure of the show tips Marilyn over the Despair Event Horizon, and she subsequently hangs herself. | |

In Curse of the Headless Horseman, the hippies decide that the best way to save the dude ranch is for them to put on shows for the tourists. As none of them possess anything that could be described as 'talent', it is hard to see exactly how this is going to help the dude ranch. | |

In Follow the Fleet, "Bake" and Sherry put on a benefit show so that Sherry's sister Connie can pay off the renovations to her father's ship (and so that nice old Captain Hickey, who guaranteed the loan, won't lose his job). Slightly more realistic than some versions of this trope, in that they arranged to borrow sets and costumes from a professional theatrical agency. | |

¿Qué Pasa, U.S.A.?: Teenage daughter Carmen puts on "Noche Cubana", a talent show centered on Cuban-American culture. The show features her friend Violeta doing a dramatic piece with an English-speaking partner, her other friend Sharon as a last minute substitute for an ill cha-cha dancer. Her mother Juana gets stage fright and runs off the stage in tears. The final act is siblings Carmen and Joe playing the song they wrote with lyrics in English and Spanish about their heritage. | |

Action Heroine Cheer Fruits has this as the show's basic premise. Set in a Japanese town with a failing economy, the Student Council President (who's also the mayor's niece) joins with a group of her classmates to put on Hero Stage Shows and become the town's mascots; their goal is to revive the town's dying tourist trade within six months and save it from being absorbed by a nearby city. | |
