Out of love for an actress, Isabelle, the Baron de Sigognac joins a traveling troop en route to Paris. When an actor dies, he takes over his role: that of Captain Fracasse.

Gaston is in love with Brigitte, daughter of the Baroness, who claims to have a lover. Gaston sets off for Paris, with 300,000 francs borrowed from the Baroness, to find his rival. He is robbed and forced to work in cabarets, where his father, his fiancée and the Baroness, not to mention the Curé, come looking for him. All ends well.
