The first musical in the Axelrod’s Sondheim Centennial Project is this Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece, regarded as one of the most acclaimed musicals of all time. The show was inspired by Georges Seurat’s pointillist painting, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. The 1984 Broadway production, starring Bernadette Peters and Mandy Patinkin, was nominated for an astounding 10 Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
Axelrod’s Sondheim Centennial Project, curated by Artistic Director Andrew DePrisco, will present one Sondheim musical each year until Stephen Sondheim’s 100th birthday anniversary in 2030, as well as concerts and showcases of living composers, to honor the master’s commitment to new voices and the future of musical theater.
