Ide o poetický príbeh, ktorý napísal Ch. Chaplin, o nešťastnom tulákovi a dieťati, ktoré vyhodili na ulicu amerického veľkomesta, odohrávajúci sa v 20. tych rokoch 20. storočia. V tomto muzikáli ožívajú figúry zo starého nemého filmu. Príbeh je plný humoru, ľudskosti, tanca a prekrásnej hudby.

The "fool glazier" finds a baby with a note that asks if someone will take care of the orphan child. The Tramp first tries to hand off the baby to a mother out on a walk with her own baby, but in the end, and mostly so as to avoid the attention of a strolling policeman, the Little Tramp takes the baby and makes a home for him. The story continues five years later during which the baby becomes the Kid. The child and his unofficial father having become inseparable companions.

We see how the Tramp and the Kid live and love each other, how they have little sneaky plans to earn money, how they belong to each other. In the meanwhile the woman has become rich and when she does a little charity for the poor she meets the kid not knowing it is hers.

The characters of the great film are vivified in the musical
replenished with crowd, rogues, sad and comic fellows.
The opening title of the film reads: „A picture with a smile - and perhaps, a tear”.
- and it was followed up by the musical, according to the genre a lot of humor, genuine warmth and pathos are combined with numerous songs and dances.

Even the story behind Chaplin's making of the film contained an element of melodrama. He decided to make the film after the death of his first, newborn son, as recasting Jacky into the child he had just lost.
This musical is not only a story with „smile and tear” , but it is an obeisance to the great artist.
