A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum

An Epic Musical Comedy

Book by BURT SHEVELOVE & LARRY GELBART
Music & Lyrics by STEPHEN SONDHEIM
Originally Produced on Broadway by HAROLD S. PRINCE
Directed & Choreographed by DAVID CONNOLLY

Join us for a musical toga party of epic proportions. This fun-filled vaudevillian romp through ancient Greece traces a day in the life of Pseudolus, the craftiest slave in Rome, as he tries to extricate himself from an increasingly farcical situation.

When the wily philistine discovers that his master's son, Hero, is in love with the beautiful - yet dim-witted - courtesan next door, he promises to help win her heart in exchange for his freedom. But the road to true love is never easy, and this romance is blocked with stunning surprises, cunning disguises, and the wildest chariot race ever!

Armed with the witty lyrics and toe-tapping tunes of legendary composer Stephen Sondheim, this irreverent production is one of the funniest musicals ever written - the perfect escape from our modern troubles!
