PLOT SYNOPSIS
"An eccentric theatrical family is upstaged by its servants, who put on a Broadway show."
- John Walker (ed.), Halliwell's Film Guide
NOTES
"Though Judy Garland sang five numbers in Everybody Sing - a title the rest of its cast took literally - and received second billing to Allan Jones, it was still not sufficient a showcase to turn her into a movie box-office attraction."
- Clive Hirschhorn, The Hollywood Musical
"Excellent film musical with fresh ideas and a corking cast. . .for the top spots."
- Variety
