Joel Froomkin directs the concert with musical direction by Ross Patterson.

Song titles will include "You Took Advantage of Me," "I Can't Give You Anything But Love," "Let's Do It," "Hooray for Captain Spaulding" and "Softly as in a Morning Sunrise."

In a statement creator-host Siegel said, "I'm constantly amazed at the number of famous songs that were first heard in Broadway shows during the 1920s. I love presenting these early years in the Broadway By the Year series because it so clearly demonstrates the impact Broadway had on American popular culture. The opportunity to have today's stars perform these wonderful classics is a treat for anyone who loves musical theatre."
