A Musical review with Buddug Verona James, Elin Davies, Richard Morris and Wyn Davies Directed by Tessa Hill Come and enjoy a tremendous night out with a new production of this critically acclaimed revue, a collection of both famous and not-so-famous songs with music and lyrics by Broadway icon Stephen Sondheim. For Sondheim fans, this is a veritable feast of familiar favourites, whilst newcomers will be delighted by a richly entertaining introduction to his exquisite melodies and delicious wordplay. Side by Side by Sondheim showcases 30 songs drawn from many of Sondheim’s Tony-Award winning shows including A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Company, A Little Night Music, Follies, Gypsy and West Side Story, for which he wrote the words to Bernstein’s music. With a multi-talented cast of locally-based professional artists, a witty script and great show-stopping songs, this is joyful proof that good things do come in small packages! A wonderful evening’s entertainment for all to enjoy.
