MARRY ME A LITTLE

Songs by Stephen Sondheim

Conceived and Developed by Craig Lucas & Norman Rene

Directed by Jules Aaron

A compilation of songs, composed by Stephen Sondheim for many of his Broadway musicals but for various reasons didn't make it into the final stage, are woven into a simple tale of two lonely people during one evening in their small, one-bedroom apartments. Featuring songs that were cut from A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM, ANYONE CAN WHISTLE, COMPANY, FOLLIES and A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC.

Featuring

Mike Dalager Jennifer Hubilla

THE LAST FIVE YEARS

Written and Composed by Jason Robert Brown

Directed by Jon Lawrence Rivera

There are two sides to every story...Jamie and Cathy's 5-year old relationship is coming to an end, and through the funny , sweet and heart-breaking songs, you hear both versions of what happened--from beginning to end, and from the end to beginning. From the Composer of SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD and PARADE.
