Review: SUNDAY IN THE PARK WITH GEORGE at Santa Fe Playhouse
Stephen Sondheim’s Sunday in the Park with George opened at Santa Fe Playhouse on Saturday and all I can say is wow.
The 1984 musical features music and lyrics by Sondheim and book by James Lapin. Inspired by the French pointillist painter Georges Seurat’s painting, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, the plot revolves around George (deftly played by Playhouse regular David Stallings), who immerses himself deeply in painting his masterpiece, and his great-grandson (also named George, also played by Stallings), a conflicted and cynical contemporary artist.
