The multitalented Steve Allen--musician, composer, singer,
comedian, author--was the star of this live weekly variety
show that bore a strong resemblance to his informal, late-night
Tonight Show. Although the program had elements of music
and serious aspects, comedy was far and away its major
component. Steve had with him one of the most versatile and
talented collections of improv comics ever assembled. Among
the features that were used at one time or another on a semi-
regular basis were: "Letters to the Editor," "The Allen Report
to the Nation," "Mad-Libs," "Crazy Shots," "Where Are They
Now," "The Question Man," "The Allen Bureau of Standards,"
"The Allen All Stars," and "The Man on the Street Interview."
