As the record plays, the show - a parody of 1920s American musical comedy - comes to life onstage, as the man wryly comments on the music, story and actors.

The NHS production is directed by Charles McAfee with vocal direction by Steven Oliveri, choreography by Maria Cherniske, and orchestra direction and production by Chris Rivera.

Tickets are $15 for students and seniors, and $18 for adults. Click here to purchase tickets.
