Book by George Furth
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Based on the original play by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart
Directed by Nick Oberstein
Music Direction by Dan Rodriguez
Sondheims semi-autobiographical musical turns back the clock on friendship and the high price of success.Merrily We Roll Along begins in the present and moves backwards, tracing the lives of wealthy, jaded composer, Franklin Shepard, and his two estranged friends through each milestone of their personal and professional lives (good and bad). The show ends with a touch of rueful irony, as the three best friends at the start of their careers face a bright future: young, talented and enthusiastic about the worlds waiting to be conquered.With a brilliant Broadway-style score and that deep insight one expects from any Sondheim endeavor, Merrily We Roll Along is a spirited and moving cautionary tale for anyone who has ever pursued a dream.
Produced through special arrangements with Music Theatre International.
