Synopsis
Sondheim's most romantic comedy, a masterpiece.
Step into the shimmering twilight of Stephen Sondheim’s A Little Night Music, a waltzing whirlwind of romance, regret, and razor-sharp wit! Desiree Armfeldt, a renowned actress, is growing weary of her life on the road. A chance encounter with an old flame sets in motion a series of romantic misadventures that culminate in a madcap weekend in the country where passions erupt, jealousies flare, and hilarity triumphs over all. Part comedy of manners, part battle of the sexes, this funny, elegant work inspired by Ingmar Bergman’s period film Smiles of a Summer Night explores a tangled web of affairs. Recipient of three Tony Awards including Best Musical, A Little Night Music is a sumptuous, provocative, laugh-out-loud masterpiece that will leave you thoroughly enchanted.
