Tiptoes

Set against the sun-drenched, high-stakes backdrop of the Florida land boom, Tiptoes reimagines the Gershwin stage hit as a visual symphony of grift and glamour. The story follows the 'Three Kayes'—Tiptoe, her brother, and her uncle—a trio of struggling vaudevillians who find themselves stranded and penniless in Palm Beach. In a desperate bid for survival, they decide to leverage Tiptoe’s charms to ensnare a millionaire, settling on the unassuming but wealthy Steve Burton. As Tiptoe masquerades as a high-society heiress, the film navigates the precarious line between her genuine affection for Steve and the calculated deception of her family. It is a comedic dance of social climbing where the costumes are borrowed, the stakes are existential, and the ultimate prize is a choice between a comfortable lie and a difficult truth.
