A Funny Thing Happened on
the Way to the Forum
Book by Burt Shevelove
and Larry Gelbart
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Sept. 6 - Oct. 7, 2005

Irreverent, fast-paced and filled with non-stop hilarity, Forum is one of the funniest musicals ever written. Featuring a zany book by the creator of Tootsie and MASH and one of Stephen Sondheim's wittiest scores, this Tony Award winner for best musical is a marvelous mixture of mischief, mishaps, mistaken identities, misunderstandings and mayhem. Return to ancient Rome where a crafty slave attempts to win his freedom by arranging the elopement of his brainless, innocent master to an equally brainless, innocent courtesan. Singing, dancing and (almost) a human sacrifice all combine in an evening’s entertainment — tragedy tomorrow, comedy tonight!

"This is the funniest, bawdiest and most enchanting Broadway musical." - The New York Times
