Civic Theatre
"Mother Wore Tights," screening on Saturday and Monday at the, Civic Theatre is being acclaimedi as the true, intimate story ofj the kind of people who made show| business like no other business on1 earth. A "warmly hu-man story, it recounts the merry marital adventures of a talented, hard-working dance team (Miss Grable and Dailey) and their fight to combinei a successful hoofing career with the raising of two rambunctious children, played by Mona Freeman and Connie Marshall. And while the picture ,has been geared to set a new pace in motion picture spectacle and melody appeal,- it is primarily devoted to unfolding the private dramas and joys of the Burt family.
