Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Ann Sothern originated Dulcy on Broadway in 1929, making this her third time playing the role after a 1930 film version—she knew this chaos by muscle memory.
This was Billie Burke's first film after her iconic Glinda in 'Wizard of Oz'—she pivoted from good witch to flustered socialite in under two years.
