The Band Wagon/Trivia

• Non-Singing Voice: Cyd Charisse, dubbed by India Adams.
• Troubled Production: Both the show-within-the-show and in real life.
  • In the show-within-the-show, the artistic team squabbles constantly, Tony can't handle the ballet choreography, and the scenery goes haywire.
  • According to the interviews in the making-of featurette and various Minnelli biographies, the production was a nightmare. Not all of the actors got along, shooting ran over both the schedule and the budget, and Astaire somehow had to concentrate on the film while his wife was dying.
