Film Musicals:
- "Babes in Arms" (1939): Perhaps his most famous musical film, Mickey Rooney starred alongside Judy Garland in this classic, directed by Busby Berkeley. The film is best known for its lavish musical numbers and the famous song "Good Morning."
- "Strike Up the Band" (1940): Again teaming up with Judy Garland, this film featured Rooney as a high school student who forms a band. It includes the hit song "Strike Up the Band" and was directed by Busby Berkeley.
- "Babes on Broadway" (1941): The third of the "Backyard Musical" series with Judy Garland, directed by Busby Berkeley. This film is famous for its patriotic and energetic musical numbers.
- "Girl Crazy" (1943): Another popular musical with Judy Garland, featuring classic Gershwin tunes like "I Got Rhythm" and "But Not For Me." This film helped to further establish Rooney's position as a musical star.
-
Stage Musicals:
- "Sugar Babies" (1979): This was a significant Broadway hit for Rooney. A burlesque-style musical revue, it co-starred Ann Miller. The show was a tribute to the era of classic American burlesque and showcased Rooney's talents in comedy, song, and dance.
- Variety Performances and Vaudeville: Rooney's early career in vaudeville, a form of variety entertainment popular in the early 20th century, laid the foundation for his skills in musical theatre. He was adept at performing sketches, singing, and dancing from a young age.
On this Australia tour, Mickey Rooney was supported by Australian singer, Jenifer Green.
