VAUDEVILLE RETURNS
Old-time vaudeville makes its comeback in the most modern of swing musicals, “Everybody Sing.” Twelve famous teams of the two-a-day era are featured in one of the comedy sequences of the new production, which boasts an all-star cast including Allan Jones, Judy Garland, Fanny Brice, Reginald Owen, Billie Burke, Reginald Gardiner, and Lynne Carver. The story concerns a mad family composed of a playwriting father and an actress mother. Their child, Judy, gets expelled from several schools because of her mania for singing “swing” in the middle of her classes. The family have a play ready for production, b’t can’t get the money to back it. Judy gets together with the family chef, Jones, and they put on a musical. It’s a hit, and the family is saved from financial ruin. Nine lavish musical sequences are featured in the picture, which was directed by Edwin L. Marin and produced by Harry Rapf. Dave directed the dances.
