Martin had a new wire puller that day, who apparently got so carried away by her performance that he let her smack the wall. She didn't let on to the kids in the show how serious the injury was, since she didn't want to frighten the, but had it privately set.

They posted a sign on that wall: MARY MARTIN SLAPPED HERE.

And she did go on as Maria that night!
