Sondheim on Sondheim is an intimate portrait of the famed songwriter in his own words...and music. Through the use of exclusive interview footage, audiences get an inside look at the famed composer's personal life and artistic process - his story, his inspiration, his genius. The tapestry of creativity that characterizes Stephen Sondheim remained largely undiscussed, especially by the man himself, until the creation of Sondheim on Sondheim.

Sondheim on Sondheim has massive theatrical potency as well as unarguable staying power. The incomparable James Lapine brilliantly curated a collection of songs that have been masterfully arranged by David Loud. In addition, Sondheim on Sondheim's multimedia facets make it additionally entertaining on the Lewis Family Playhouse stage.

Stephen Sondheim is one of the most highly regarded composer/lyricists in musical theater history. He was a protégé of Oscar Hammerstein II, who is often referred to as the father of the modern musical. Along with director/producer Harold Prince, Sondheim is credited with creating the "concept musical" starting with his show

Company. With James Lapine, the conceiver and director of Sondheim on Sondheim, he has written several shows, including the Pulitzer Prize winning Sunday In The Park With George.
