The title says it all

Warning: Spoilers
This is an early Mickey Mouse short produced by the Disney studio. There will be spoilers ahead:

There's no plot here, this is just what the title says it is, a party. A "whoopee party", to be specific. They were wild parties, plain and simple, with lots of drinking and raucous celebration. That's this short.

It opens with lots of couples dancing. There is a lot of reused footage, so you see gags used multiple times. That's done to save time and money. Minnie and Clarabelle Cow are playing music, while Mickey, Horace Horsecollar and the early Goofy are fixing food in the kitchen.

The bulk of the cartoon is everyone (and, at one point, virtually everything) dancing and having fun. Mickey and others get music out of the darnedest things, like window shades and mousetraps. There's some very good animation, a lot of it repeated.

The ending is very good, so I won't spoil that here. It's in keeping with the general premise of the short and very funny.

This short is available on the Disney Treasures Mickey Mouse In Black and White, Volume One DVD set and it and the set are well worth getting. Recommended.
