Merrily We Roll Along by Stephen Sondheim
Franklin Shepard is a rich, famous, and influential songwriter and film producer. As time rolls back over 20 years of his life, we see his journey from penniless composer to wealthy producer, and what he sacrificed to get there.
With a brilliant score and the deep insight expected from any Stephen Sondheim endeavour, Merrily We Roll Along is a spirited and moving cautionary tale for anyone who has ever pursued a dream.
