@thejudyroom.comEarlier in the day on October 5, 1945, Judy rehearsed "Look For the Silver Lining" for "Till the Clouds Roll By"; then, early that evening, she appeared on the CBS Radio show "The Danny Kaye Show." Judy and Frank Sinatra substituted for Kaye, who was on a USO tour.
@thejudyroom.comSeven years later, Judy attended the "Ice Follies" show again, this time with Vincente Minnelli.
By the 1970s, the auditorium was in disrepair and featured in the 1980 musical "Xanadu," starring Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly. Sadly, a fire destroyed the venue in 1989.
@thejudyroom.comOctober 5, 1938: Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney attended the opening of the "Ice Follies" show at the fabulous Pan Pacific Auditorium, which was the location of the largest ice stage in the world at that time.
@thejudyroom.comNote that they're listed as the "4 Garland Sisters," meaning that their mother, Ethel, was included as part of the act (she usually provided piano accompaniment).
