| | Hellzapoppin, 1941, Martha Raye |
 | | Before 'Airplane' (aka 'Flying High'), before 'Blazing Saddles', before '1941' and in the year 1941, there was 'Hellzapoppin'', a madcap, zany, hilarious and addictive 'movie' (well, that's open to question, to quote from the script) based on a highly successful Broadway comedy of the same name. |
 | | The original stage production of Hellzapoppin' began in New York at the 46th Street Theatre on the 22nd of September, 1938, and ran for three years. |
 | | Hellzapoppin played at the Strand Theater in Marshalltown, Iowa in 1941, while I was the doorman (ticket taker). |
