He explained this year's show takes audience members on frolicking romp through the rich history of TV, film, Broadway, and Americana.
"The audience will recognize many songs from the past through today, plus some classic TV and movie scenes they wouldn't have expected," he said, adding that song-and-dance routines are interspersed with comedy skits, heavy on physical and satirical humor.

For each for the past 44 years, more than 100 Doylestown-area residents write, produce and perform the annual show, as well as build their own sets and construct the stage itself in the Our Lady of Mount Carmel School auditorium.
The group will spend a total of six months in production, from initial writing in October until the March show dates.
Several members have been involved with the show for all 43 prior productions. Long-time members credit the group's longevity to the creativity and enthusiasm of its members, who represent many careers and backgrounds.
Businesses around Doylestown and the surrounding areas can get visibility from the nearly 1,500 total audience attendees by advertising in the show program, or donating goods and services for raffle baskets to be raffled off at each of the six shows.
