Mono, the Stranded 'Carmen
Wows Night Club Audience
Nashville, Tenn., Dec. 1 ) Dark-eyed Mona Bradford, the
operatic beauty who came here to sing the lead in "Carmen" and
stayed to warble torch songs in a night club, packed the house
last night.
One of the largest crowds in the history of the swank Planta
tion club turned out lor tne
brunette singer's night spot de
but.
The raven-haired Mona says
she wants to make enough
money to ride back to New York
in style.
She got the night club en
gagement after her plaint that
she was stranded here when the
New York Civic Opera company
called it quits after an unprofit
able tour of about 60 one-night
stands. The show folded in Dan
ville, 111., Saturday night.
In New York, the managing
director of the touring' opera
company denied that the glamor
ous "Carmen" had been strand
ed. "I carried three 'Carmens,' "
William Reutemann told news
men in New York. "Miss Brad
ford would go ahead and steer
a little publicity for our show.
So when we were in Danville,
she was in Nashville. It just
happens that way."
Be that as it may, Mona the
Moaner wowed the night spot
ters here last night.
She opened with "Smoke Gets
In Your Eyes," shifted to a
couple of rousing songs from
"Carmen," and wound up with
a hip-shaking "Miserlou" which
brought loud whistles and stomp
ing. The "Miserlou," Mona con
fided, was done in the original
Arabic.
j ft lf-ini
Stranded 'Carmen' De
pite the smile, Mona Brad
ford, 28, said she is "embar
rassed and humiliated" be
cause the touring operatic com
pany into which she sank six
weeks' Dack pay failed to join
her for a performance in Nash
ville, Tenn. The fiery "Car
men" is stranded and gnash
ing her teeth without a rose
because the opera company
apparently went broke in mid
tour. (Acme Telephoto)

"I like to be versatile," she
said after the show. "You know
from straight opera to sort of
vampish roles. I kind of like
vampish roles."
What would she do when her
week's engagement was up?
Hide back to New York on
the plane," she beamed. "I've
got to see what's cooking there."
The management at the Plan
tation club expressed regrets
that Mona couldn't stay longer.
Things were certainly cooking
down here.
