CIVIC THEATRE
MONDAY ONLY Judy Garland goes glamour girl, gets plenty of opposition in the person of exotic Marta Eggerth, and charms no less an austere personage than Van Heflin in M.-G.-M.'s "Presenting Lily Mars," her newest singing appearance, screening on Monday only at the Civic Theatre. This is a romance of the modern theatre, with haunting music embellishing an equally haunting romance. It tells what happens when a young singer sets out to attain stardom. Judy is the young singer. She tries to "crash" her way to the attention of a famous producer, Heflin, manages to make his prima donna, Marta Eggerth, insanely jealous, and amid comical complications and a touching love story the embryo star achieves success, musically and romantically.
