We all deserve to be happy, and we’re hoping to help you kick off a Happy New Year on this week’s “Dress Circle (12/31 7:00 p.m.) with some “happy” songs from the musicals spanning some eight decades.

Our songs will be about a myriad of topics from whistling a happy tune, singing happy, talking happy, and generally being happy.

Our shows include “Flora the Red Menace,’ “Grand Hotel,” “No, No Nanette,” Mack and Mabel,” “Bye Bye Birdie,” “Grey Gardens,” and “Minnie’s Boys” among others.

The happy singers we’ve lined up include Liza Minnelli, Jack Guilford, Susan Watson, Dick Van Dyke, Julie Andrews, John Hewer, Judy Garland, Robert Preston, Shelly Winters, Robert Goulet, and more.

It’s all designed to be a bit of fun for your New Year’s Eve, so join us for an hour that we promise won’t give you a headache or hangover!
