Description by OLDIES.com:
Tom Warren finds himself bankrupt and abandoned by his bride-to-be on his wedding day. He escapes town and ends up at a traveling carnival, where he meets Penny, a dancing girl whom he sets his sights on. Tom lands a job as the carnival's high diver and a romance develops between the two. Once Penny realizes Tom comes from high society, she worries she's not worthy of him and wonders if they should be falling in love after all.
Born in New Orleans, Boots Mallory became an official member of the Ziegfeld Follies of 1931 at the age of 18. Once in Hollywood, she appeared in Erich von Stroheim's first talkie, Hello, Sister! (1933). Allen Vincent hailed from Washington State and debuted in Bradley Barker's film Mother's Boy (1929). He eventually secured roles in talkies such as Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933) and The Return of Peter Grimm (1935) starring Lionel Barrymore. Light weight character actor Donald Kerr was cast in over 450 films during the course of his career and was best known for his role as Happy Hapgood in Flash Gordon's Trip to Mars (1938). In Carnival Lady, Kerr performs a surprisingly athletic and humorous dance with Anita Faye. Little person Angelo Rossitto appears in a bit part at a dinner table reminiscent of a similar scene in Tod Browning's Freaks (1932). Director and screenwriter Howard Higgin is remembered for his most notable films, The Painted Desert (1931) with Clark Gable and Hell's House (1932) starring Bette Davis.
