Spectacular 11-Member Stage Show
Following the smashing and successful 2009 national tour of Performing Art Centers across the country, Matt Davenport Productions, Inc. is proud to debut to the Live On Stage audience, The Great American Songbook, a stunning journey through a century of American music.

Each chapter of the songbook is brought to life through show-stopping performances by a dazzling cast of eight performers and a sizzling jazz trio along with creative sets, colorful costumes and clever choreography!

This innovative, potpourri of popular music showcases among many scenes, a 1940’s-style “live radio show”, the entire Wizard of Oz re-createdin seven minutes and a salute to Motown’s Temptations and The Supremes. Classics from the Great American Masters like Rodgers and Hammerstein, Harold Arlen and the Gershwins are revamped into dazzling production numbers and spine-tingling tap dance routines.

Plus, our newest chapter features songs from today’s hit makers like Michael Buble, Ray Charles and Billy Joel. With lush musical arrangements of award-winning songs from “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”, to “”Route 66” to “Bridge Over Troubled Waters”, there’s a memorable musical moment for every family member in The Great American Songbook!
