Sing Boy Sing is a 1958 American musical drama film released by 20th Century-Fox and starring newcomers Tommy Sands and Lili Gentle.

Production

20th Century-Fox had enjoyed success with films starring Elvis Presley and Pat Boone. In February 1957, the studio bought the film rights, and in July Sands signed on to appear in the film. Henry Ephron was assigned to produce.

Ephron said that Claude Binyon had written "a first-rate script" that "could be made at a price." He approached Orson Welles about the part of the manager. Welles was enthusiastic and also wanted to direct the film. He explained his ideas to Ephron, who thought that they were "electric," and pitched the idea of Welles directing to the executives at Fox.

Filming began in September 1957. Sands' costar was Lili Gentle, a Fox contract player who had appeared in Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?.

Sands cowrote some of the film's musical numbers.
