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.
