Opposite Miss Dove appears Cullen Landis as the young farmer. Others in the cast are Noah Beery, Zazu Pitts, Edythe Chapman, Sylvia Ashton, and Mabel Van Buren, all of whom have been starred in their own productions. In "Youth to Youth" Miss Dove appears as a charming musical comedy star, the idol of Broadway. Her happiness is soooned when she learns that the world suspects her promoter, a wealthy hotel owner (Noah Beery), of being more than casually interested in her success. To escape the scandal about her, she assumes another name and accepts a position with a theatrical troupe in the Middle West. This company of players used as a theatre a floating boat. While the "Thespis," as the floating theatre is called, is docked in a small rural town, the actress meets a young farmer and their affection sees in her remarkable abilities as an actress, and he sends her photograph to a friend in New York.
