From TOLEDO REPERTOIRE THEATRE
The Toledo Repertoire Theatre presents Side by Side by Sondheim weekends Sept. 2 through Sept. 11 2022, on the 10th Street Stage.
Get ready to laugh, cry and fall in love with lyrics that are heartbreakingly true and music that captures the soaring emotions of a new generation with Side by Side by Sondheim. Simple and unpretentious, this Tony Award-winning musical is a perfect introduction to the work of this contemporary master and a must for diehard fans.
Stephen Sondheim has been the leading composer of musical theatre for the past fifty years. His work is timeless. From the streets of ancient Rome, through nineteenth-century Japan and turn-of-the-century Sweden, to the high-rise apartments of 1970 Manhattan, his songs represent a definitive time and place, and yet move beyond their particular settings to speak to us all. Now, with this award-winning revue of his earlier work, some of the most lush, unforgettable songs from this musical theatre master are presented in one magical evening. Featuring music from Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Anyone Can Whistle and Pacific Overtures, not to mention the classics written with musical theatre giants, Leonard Bernstein, Jule Styne and Richard Rodgers, this dazzling array of some of Sondheim’s best-known songs demonstrates his masterful craft and astounding creativity.
Side by Side by Sondheim is directed and choreographed by Stephanie L. Dennehy. Musical and vocal direction is by Jeffrey Alan Maxie, and the show is stage managed by Miranda Zielinski. The talented cast is comprised of Dylan Coale, Maria Fallouh, Isabelle Grima, Maddie Hickey, Sarah Matlow, Jeffrey Alan Maxie, Neil Powell, and Max Ruff.
The curtain rises Friday, Sept. 2 and Saturday, Sept. 3 at 8 p.m. and then again on Friday, Sept. 9, and Saturday, Sept. 10 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, Sept. 11 at 2:30 pm.
