All performances were presented at the Theatre at Saint Peter's (54th Street, just East of Lexington Ave). For more information visit www.yorktheatre.org or call the York's Box Office at 212-935-5820.

‘Mufti' (pronounced MUFF' tee) means "in street clothes; without the usual trappings" and each show in the Series is presented script-in-hand, with minimal staging. KNICKERBOCKER HOLIDAY marks the 75th Mufti concert revival in the acclaimed series. The series presents musical theatre gems from Broadway, Off-Broadway and London, celebrating such writers as Richard Rodgers, George Abbott, Larry Grossman and Joseph Stein. The 2009 Spring Series included The Grand Tour (May 29-31) and High Spirits (June 12-14).

Notable Musicals in Mufti presentations in the series' 75-performance history include Enter Laughing, The Musical (which inspired The York's record-breaking Off-Broadway production), Take Me Along, Carmelina, Plain and Fancy, Lucky Stiff, Darling of the Day, Mata Hari, Carmen Jones, Billion Dollar Baby and 70, Girls, 70. TIME Magazine listed York's Mufti version of Darling of the Day as one of the Top Ten Theatrical Events of 2005, and AM New York referred to the Mufti Series as "increasingly essential." The series began in 1994 with concerts of The Grass Harp, A Doll's Life and Oh, Brother!
