Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
April 24, 25, and 26 at 7:30pm.
The Bur Oak, 2262 Winnebago St.
Directed by Emily Glick
Music Direction by Lisa Erdman
Featuring Abby Nichols and Amanda Rodriguez
Two single strangers, left alone in their studio apartments on a Saturday night, pass their time with sweetly secret, unshared fantasies, never knowing that they're just a floor away from each other and the end of their lonely dreams. Featuring trunk songs from popular Sondheim musicals, many of which were later restored to other shows, MARRY ME A LITTLE is a way to peek deeper into the mind of this master of contemporary musical theatre.
