Production
Originally, Nancy Welford, who had recently come from stardom in Gold Diggers of Broadway, and had played the role of Nanette in a 1925 version of the musical on the west coast, was asked to play the role of Nanette, but was ultimately dropped. The replacement for Welford was actress Alice White, but was also dropped because she asked for a very expensive wage and First National Pictures wanted a stage actress.
