William H. Cosby, Jr. is an American icon, responsible for creating some of the most beloved television characters
of all time, like ‘Scotty’ Scott from his first series “I Spy,” Fat Albert, Hilton Lucas of “Cosby,” and of course
Dr. Heathcliff Huxtable. But for this Philadelphia native, it all started with stand-up. In the ‘60s, Bill’s comedy
albums were infamously successful. In the ‘80’s, “Bill Cosby: Himself” became his signature concert film, and contained
much of the groundwork stand-up comedy material which later gave birth to “The Cosby Show.”

“There is a house in New Orleans”…. Who could forget that growling lyric from lead singer Eric Burdon, one of the
seminal figures of the 1960s British Invasion! During his tenure with The Animals, Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Fame member
and legendary singer Eric Burdon has charted 25 Top 40 hits including classics like: “House of the Rising Sun,”

Singer/songwriter/pianist Ray Stevens has been amusing fans with his wry, story-like parodies in both mainstream
pop and country music circles for more than 30 years. Some of his favorite novelty songs include “Santa Claus is
Watching You,” “Gitarzan,” “Along Came Jones,” “The Streak,” “Mississippi Squirrel Revival,” and “It's Me Again

Music Theatre, 2425 Lincoln Hwy. E. (Rt. 30), Lancaster, PA 17602, 717-397-7700, 800-648-4102.
Country star Craig Morgan has had a wide and varied career—EMT, contractor, sheriff’s deputy—even a Wal-Mart assistant
dairy manager. Lucky for all his fans, he finally made the career choice that suited him best. Grand Ole Opry legend
Minnie Pearl once told Craig Morgan, “ Son, someday you’re going to be a famous singer.” Her prediction came true
when he made his own appearance at the Grand Ole Opry. Named Top New Male Vocalist by the Academy of Country Music
in both 2006 and 2007, he is now considered one of Country Music’s most beloved performers. You can’t listen to
a country station without hearing a Craig Morgan song, like “That’s What I Love About Sunday,” or "International
Harvester," and “My Kind of Livin’,” (the most played country song of 2005).

Music Theatre, 2425 Lincoln Hwy. E. (Rt. 30), Lancaster, PA 17602, 717-397-7700, 800-648-4102.
Charley Pride's silky-smooth baritone ruled the country airwaves in the '60s and '70s. Discovered as a teenager
by the great Red Sovine, Pride went on to tear down the accepted belief that country music's primarily white audience
would never accept a black performer. To the contrary, Pride's pure Nashville style has remained a staple of the
scene. His better known hits include “Kiss an Angel Good Morning,” “Help Me Make it Through the Night” and “I Don't
Think She's in Love Anymore.”
