Filming locations[edit]
The opening beach scene was shot at Sea Shell Beach. The exterior Rudman scenes, including the front parking lot scenes, the auto shop, the “Sweet Victory” bleachers number, Penny's “I Penny” number, the basketball, baseball, and track segments, and the interior of the gymnastics gym, were shot at McAllen High School in McAllen, Texas, during the summer of 1966. The Rudman interiors, including the bowling alley, were filmed at Creasey's Bowl (opened in 1954) in Harlingen, Texas. The Boys’ sleepover was shot at a private house in East McAllen. The Paramount Pictures studio lot was the location of the scenes that involve Frosty Palace and the musical numbers "Little Miss Penny" and "Beauty School Dropout". The drive-in movie scenes were shot at the Burbank Pickwick Drive-In (it was closed and torn down in 1989 and a shopping center took its place). The race was filmed at the Los Angeles River, between the First and Seventh Street Bridges, where many other films have been shot. The final scene where the carnival took place used John Marshall High School in Los Feliz. Furthermore, owing to budget cuts, a short scene was filmed at Hazard Park in Los Angeles.
