I enjoy sunday in the park with george's version. Sonheim did a brilliant job with it.

Such a poignant homage to Sondheims Sunday in the Park with George,I love it.

WOW you guys are amazing!!! I love this show!!!

OMG yeah I saw it at the menier chocolate factory too xx amazing

I saw an amazing version of this play in London at the Menier Chocolate Factory circa 2005, with Neil Patrick Harris in the lead. Fabulous...

Jonathan did it better by himself at a piano this is ....ok

jesusfreak34988 3 years ago

That's why this is a show, and Jonathan was just Jonathan.

Besides, I'm sure you could DO waaay better.

Yeeeeeah...

Well, actually, I agree with the first comment.

This song is better as a one man preformance. Maybe not the rest of the show, but this one is Jon's commentarie on his job, and how he thinks he'll probably always be surrounding by the chaos.

I find the solo version to be kind of 2-dimensional. I would imagine that the way it appears in the show is the way Jonathan would have wanted it done. (Actually he would probably wanted even more singers to fill it out, a la SUNDAY IN THE PARK...)

It's fun as a solo, but it is as it was intended in TICK, TICK...BOOM!

I unno...wasn't Tick, Tick...BOOM! actually a 1 man show?

Bu anyway I think it's funny!

And it made me laugh SO much when I realised its a total pastiche on Sondheim! I was like HELL YES!!!

@windmillwacker My college actually did an expanded version of the show (we added an ensemble of 10, (ensemble membors played the minor parts) and this number really benefitted from the extra voices and bodies. We really were able to do a lot more with the show that way. Some Larson fans wanted to called it blasphemy at first but when they saw it they understood why it deserved to be expanded upon.

Anyways... I totally agree with your comment :p

Love this play - it's even better Live. Saw it at Truman College in Chicago. It was amazing! I just learned today that this song is a play on the finale from Sunday at the Park with George - from Larson's mentor, Sondheim. Who knew?

John Larson was very clever when he did this. I think he is probably the only theatre composer who (had the potential) to write from the same point as Stephen Sondheim. He wasn't as good or educated composer as Sondheim. but he knew how to connect characters to music, and tell a story clever, and creatively.

hehehehe. i like. well done.

Perhaps your director didn't realize, but this song is a direct homage to Sunday from Sunday in the Park With George :P.

Download the song, you'll see what i mean :).

You guys have pretty nice vocals, I just feel like this song should be done a bit differently. Great actors though :)

Also, we also needed to pantomime the modern people described in our song as opposed to the characters of Sunday in the Park. This gives it a different feel as well.

Give it another go with those things in mind. I really appreciate your ideas. You sent me on a twenty minute tangent YouTubing Sondheim songs because I wanted to see your point more clearly. :)

I hope that this helps you to see where we were comming from as well. Again, thank you for the compliment.

windmillwacker 4 years ago

Thank you for the kind words.

The director (and cast) were quite familiar with the homage element as well as the original source. The majority of the scene's homage exists within the music itself.

The staging is a more nuanced element of the homage so as to not draw the audience away from the story we were telling. It would have been fun to see 2-D elements of a diner flying in to create that picture, but it would not have fit into the context of our show.
