BUSTER DAVIS (Composer, Lyricist, Co-Author of the Book, Musical Director and Vocal Arranger) - As a Musical Director and Vocal Arranger, Buster Davis' name has become synonymous with the best in musical comedy. He has worked on more than 25 Broadway musicals in these capacities, including Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, Top Banana, Bells Are Ringing, Funny Girl, Hallelujah, Baby!, No, No, Nanette and Lorelei. For four years, millions of television viewers saw and heard his vocal group, the Buster Davis Singers, as a feature of The Bell Telephone Hour. His TV work won him an Emmy in 1960. Off-Broadway he co-produced the revival of Best Foot Forward which marked Liza Minnelli's New York stage debut. As a teenager, he played in a jazz band and is a graduate of Princeton where he majored in English. His score and book (which he co-authored) for Doctor Jazz are his first for a Broadway musical, though he has written far too much special material for such diverse performers as Hermione Gingold, Gertrude Lawrence and Celeste Holm.

RAOUL PENE du BOIS (Scenery and Costume Designer) is a two-time Tony Award winner, having been cited for his more than 200 1920's costumes for No, No, Nanette and his scenic designs for Wonderful Town. As a member of a famous artistic family, Mr. du Bois began designing for the stage at age 16, when he created some costumes for The Garrick Gaieties. Among the many other revues and musicals for which he provided sets or costumes - or both - in subsequent decades are Jumbo, Too Many Girls, Dubarry Was a Lady, Panama Hattie, Lend An Ear, Carmen Jones, Call Me Madam, New Faces of 1952, Bells Are Ringing, The Music Man and Gypsy, both the original with Ethel Merman and the recent revival with Angela Lansbury. His films include Lady in the Dark, Kitty and Louisiana Purchase.

FEDER (Lighting Designer) - Mr. Feder's lighting designs have scored over a period of several decades, from the Federal Theatre to Orson Welles' famous Dr. Faustus (the first time lighting took the place of scenery on an open stage) to World War II's Winged Victory (when he was Sgt. Feder) to Inherit The Wind, My Fair Lady, Camelot and On a Clear Day You Can See Forever. In the architectural world, New York City alone is full of his lighting creations: the United Nations building, the New York Coliseum, Philharmonic Hall at Lincoln Center, the John F. Kennedy International Airport, Rockefeller Center, the Minskoff Theatre and the lighting design for all of the theatres in the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.

ABE JACOB (Sound Designer) is one of the most successful sound designers in the entertainment field. In 1970 he re-designed the sound system for the Broadway production of Hair and eventually became responsible
