Christopher Plummer agreed to star, in what would be his first musical since ''The Sound of Music''. Filming started in Ireland in March 1968.<ref>MOVIE CALL SHEET: Plummer Gets Musical Lead

==Reception==
In his review in the ''New York Times'', [[Roger Greenspun]] wrote: "...a three-strand plot that has been so smothered in atmosphere, activity and authenticity that even the great traditions of theatrical untruth cannot breathe life into it. The production values of "Lock Up Your Daughters!" are ambitious enough to fill three movies, but they are not sufficient to substitute for one."<ref>[https://movies.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9803E7DA1F30E73BBC4E52DFB6678382679EDE "Lock Up Your Daughters! A Comic Resolution"], ''New York Times'', October 16, 1969</ref>
