When none of the local girls in the village of Loxford are deemed virtuous enough to be crowned May Queen, the reticent young grocery clerk Albert Herring is chosen as May King instead. After imbibing a rum-laced lemonade at the May Day festival, Albert goes missing, and hilarious pandemonium ensues.
