Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim

Description: The lesser-known songs of Stephen Sondheim reclaim the spotlight in this marvelously understated overview of the career of Broadway’s reigning genius.

The exhilarating work represented here is nothing short of a revelation: the appealing melodies and astonishing craft of his first unproduced Broadway musical, written in his early 20s; the gut-busting numbers that didn’t make it into A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM; the stark beauty of PACIFIC OVERTURES; the sweeping romanticism of ANYONE CAN WHISTLE; and a heartrendingly gorgeous ballad from his adaptation of THE FROGS, originally staged in the Yale University swimming pool.

These rare gems are performed alongside some of Sondheim’s best-loved miniature masterpieces in the simplest of one-act revues that is ideal for intimate theatres, cabaret spaces and concert halls. A perfect follow-up to the popular SIDE BY SIDE BY SONDHEIM; it is by turns howlingly funny, astoundingly clever, hauntingly beautiful and always entertaining. If you like Sondheim, you're gonna love YOU'RE GONNA LOVE TOMORROW.

Insight from the experts Casting Tip: All performers should, in general, have good voices, a wide range, and stage appeal.

Set Tip: As simple as stools in an open space.
