Production credits:

Music director and music by Edward Ward ; lyrics [and one song] by Chester Forrest and Robert Wright ; dances staged by Ernst Matray ; director of photography, Russell Metty ; art director, Van Nest Polglase ; gowns by Edward Stevenson ; edited by Robert Wise.

Cast: Maureen O'Hara (Judy), Louis Hayward (Jimmy Harris), Lucille Ball (Bubbles), Virginia Field (Elinor Harris), Ralph Bellamy (Steve Adams), Mary Carlisle (Sally), Katharine Alexander (Miss Olmstead), Edward Brophy (Dwarfie), Walter Abel (Judge), Harold Huber (Hoboken gent), Maria Ouspenskaya (Madame Basilova).Summary: Dorothy Arzner, the sole woman to work as a director in the Hollywood studio system of the '30s and early '40s, brings a subversive feminist sensibility to this juicily entertaining backstage melodrama. A behind-the-footlights look at friendship, jealousy, and ambition in the ruthless world of show business, Dance, Girl, Dance follows the intertwining fates of two chorus girls: a starry-eyed dancer (Maureen O'Hara) who dreams of making it as a ballerina, and the brassy gold digger (a scene-stealing Lucille Ball) who becomes her rival both on the stage and in love.
