Doris Day, with her bubbly personality, lilting voice and radiant blonde beauty, was America’s sweetheart of the silver screen throughout the 1950s and 1960s. With timeless hits such as Sentimental Journey, Secret Love and Que Sera, Sera, she captured hearts around the world and spent many years ranked as the No. 1 female box‑office star. Her warmth, optimism and unmistakable charm continue to enchant audiences across generations.
It is 1971, and Doris is filming her television special.
You are invited to step inside the studio and become part of the taping of A Doris Day Special, celebrating the life, music and irresistible spirit of that quintessential girl next door.
Created by Ali and first brought to life in Christchurch ten years ago, this beloved production returns to honour its 10‑year anniversary.
