SYNOPSIS:
Six unlucky students who don’t know much about history have to retake the class in summer school. Heather Fairchild has arranged for them to help her two aunts set up a new wax museum. The students’ eyes glaze over with boredom, there’s a twinkle in the wax figures’ eyes when an incantation on Cleopatra’s bracelet brings them to life! King Henry VIII finds himself smitten with Cleopatra; Anne Boleyn, who is furious has John Adams as her divorce attorney! Butch Cassidy, the Sundance Kid, Blackbeard, and a bevy of lady pirates are out for one thing—treasure! Supposedly, there’s a mighty valuable one hidden in the museum! It’s a wild goose chase to find it, with a greedy museum landlord and her bumbling son joining in the mad search. And why is Lizzie Borden lurking in the shadows, since the aunts say they never had a wax figure of her?
