"Midnight Frolics"

The interior of the Belasco Theatre, 1050 S. Hill St., is seen in the 1949 film "Midnight Frolics," also known as "Midnight Follies." It's evidently a filmed performance of burlesque and comedy sketches.

Lillian Hunt directed a cast that includes Sunny Knight, Mickey "Ginger" Jones, Wauneta Bates, Helen Cogan, George Rose and Annette Warren.





"Big-Time Burlesque As You Like It." These lobby cards from MovieStillsDB.com appear on IMDb. Clips from the film appear in Frank Henenlotter's 2013 compilation "That's Sexploitation."

Hit the Belasco Theatre pages on the Los Angeles Theatres site for photos of the building and a history of its career.
