Production
Under the working title The House of Troy, filming of In Gay Madrid began on November 14, 1929 and concluded on December 21.[1] Some retakes were directed by Robert Ober in January 1930.
Release
In Gay Madrid was released on May 17, 1930, and was moderately successful at the box office.[2] though it was critically panned.[3] The film's financial under-performance could, in part, be attributed to American audiences growing tired of musicals.[4] It was paired with the comedy short, The Home Edition, starring Jay C. Flippen, in some U.S. theaters.[5] It was released in Ottawa on June 23, 1930, along with the short Memories, a Musical Fantasy.[6] In Gay Madrid has had a DVD release from Warner Archive in November 2015.
