OGDENSBURG -- Ogdensburg Command Performances' 2015-16 season continues Nov. 20 with “All Hands On Deck,” a tribute to Bob Hope’s 1942 USO show for troops fighting World War II.

The show will be at Ogdensburg Free Academy’s George Hall Auditorium.

Curtain time is 7:45 p.m.

A pre-show chat is at 6:45 p.m.

Ticket prices range from $17 to $37. They are available at ocp@ogdensburgk12.org or 393-2625.

The productions features four of what are described on its website as “Hollywood stars,” accompanied by the Hollywood Victory Caravan orchestra.

“From Roadshow to Radio Broadcast, our tight harmonies, on air antics, classic commercials, and rousing comedy gracefully climax to a finish of a lifetime; a full-circle, patriotic salute to our active duty and veteran members of the armed services,” the show’s website says.

Songs in the musical’s 40-tune repertoire include “Chattanooga Choo-Choo,” “Atchison Topeka and the Santa Fe,” “I’m In The Mood For Love,” “Pennsylvania Polka,” “I’ll Never Smile Again,” “Don’t Fence Me In,” “Deep In The Heart Of Texas,” “Thanks For The Memory” and “America the Beautiful.”
