<p>Closing the Summer Lyric season August 2 - 5 is High Society . Imagine that Philip Barry had written "The Philadelphia Story," his classic 1939 romantic comedy, not as a play but a musical, with Cole Porter his collaborator, and you have.... High Society! It's not only the show's title but the show's first song, in which the Lord family's amazing staff sets the scene (the Lord family lives on a waterfront estate in Oyster Bay now, not Philadelphia). Come join the Lords for a weekend of fun and games! Directed by B. Michael Howard and Ed Kresley and choreographed by Ed Kresley, the phenomenal Cole Porter score includes classics such as “Ridin' High,” "True Love," "You're Sensational," "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?," "Well, Did You Evah?" "Just One of Those Things," "It's All Right With Me," “I Love Paris,” and “Let’s Misbehave” </p>
