@horerfandod3 Your a bit off, it was Sondheim's idea to have actors play instruments in 'A Little Night Music' but they had trouble making it work so only Henrik played. Sondheim always envisioned Sweeney as an intimate show, but only John Doyle came up with actor musicians.
That said, I think it is a brilliant concept and makes for truly entertaining theater.
