'Company' by Stephen Sondheim was a ground-breaking musical, when first produced in the early 70s. It still remains an immensely enjoyable reminder of his genius.
A 1950’s comic strip seems a highly unlikely source material for a successful musical, but it works.
Mel Brooks wrote this 12 Tony Award winning musical, based on the Academy Award winning 1968 hit film starring Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder, which he also wrote and directed.
If you love Sondheim and Sweeney Todd, and even if you do not, you will not want to miss this outstanding production but, as I keep warning people in vain, book now before the word gets around and the tickets all go.
