Stephen Sondheim’s Company
 
The clashing sounds and pulsing rhythms of New York City as only Stephen Sondheim can compose them underscore this landmark musical, considered by many to have inaugurated the modern era of musical theatre. With an equally witty book by the late George Furth, Company takes us on an hilarious look at the state of matrimony. Company features a brilliant energetic score containing many of Sondheim's best-known songs (including "Another Hundred People," "The Ladies Who Lunch" and "Being Alive"). An award winning show with 11 Tony, Drama Desk and Critics Circle awards in its original production and for the recent revival, Company celebrates our antihero Bobby’s 35th birthday in a way he’ll never forget. And we don’t think you will either!
