Side by Side by Sondheim

The Connecticut Cabaret Theatre is pleased to announce its production of the musical revue, SIDE BY SIDE BY SONDHEIM, directed by Kris McMurray, filled with the music of Broadway genius Stephen Sondheim.
The sophistication, wit, insight, heart and genius of Broadways most innovative and influential artist is at the center of this tribute to composer-lyricist Stephen Sondheim. This dazzling array of some of Sondheim's best-known songs features numbers from landmark shows that revolutionized the musical theatre with their masterful craft and astounding creativity: Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum, Anyone Can Whistle and Pacific Overtures, not to mention the classics written with musical theatre giants Leonard Bernstein, Jule Styne and Richard Rodgers, West Side Story, Gypsy and Do I Hear A Waltz? Also included are delectable rarities from the television musical Evening Primrose, the film The Seven Percent Solution and the hit revue The Mad Show.
The cast consists of a small group talented and leading performers. Jeanne Cailouette and Kelly Boucher round out the ladies, while Lenny Fredericks and Kris McMurray balance off the gentlemen. The two ladies and Lenny sing through the song book of Sondheims earlier works, while Kris McMurray narrates. Musical Director Frank Jackson tinkles the ivories right on stage with the performers and add his own showmanship and personality to the show. Together it will be quite a fun and entertaining evening.
