LAS VEGAS (AP) -- The Osmonds will reunite this summer for a TV special celebrating a half-century in the entertainment business.
Seven Osmond siblings -- Alan, Wayne, Merrill, Jay, Donny, Marie and Jimmy -- are scheduled to be onstage Aug. 13-14 at The Orleans Hotel Showroom, publicist Kevin Sasaki said Thursday from Los Angeles.
Tickets for the live shows range from $75 to $125.
The shows will be taped for "The Osmonds 50th Anniversary," which will air next March on PBS stations.
"At first it was just a tribute to my brothers, but it came together as a celebration of everybody. It's out of control," Jimmy Osmond, producer of the special, said Thursday.
"We started so young, you would think 50 years means we're a bunch of old guys. We aren't a bunch of old guys," he said, noting that family members perform frequently before audiences young and old.
