LTV Studios will present “Courting the Jester: A Musical Salute to Danny Kaye” at LTV on Sunday, October 6, at 4 p.m. The musical was conceived, directed and performed by Bob Spiotto, with musical direction and arrangements by pianist Peter A. Pece.

From Brooklyn to the Borscht Belt to Broadway and beyond, David Daniel Kaminski, better known to millions as Danny Kaye, delighted audiences throughout the world and touched hearts with laughter.

Actor, director and producer Bob Spiotto pulls out all the stops in this tribute to one of America’s most beloved and honored entertainers, which includes an overview of Danny Kaye’s fascinating life and career, anecdotes and fascinating stories; and most deliciously, performances of some of Danny’s unforgettable, classic songs: “The Ugly Duckling,” “Ballin’ the Jack” and more.

General admission is $20 in advance and $25 at the door. VIP café table seating will be available for $45. To purchase tickets, visit ltveh.org. LTV Studios is 75 Industrial Road in Wainscott.
