Part dream, part fairy tale, "A Little Night Music" tells a bittersweet tale of love and regret. With penetrating witty lyrics and a ravishing score composed almost entirely in ¾ beat, the great Stephen Sondheim breathed new life into operetta. He and his producer/director Harold Prince took the form into a provoking social and political context. In probing beneath the surface to expose the vulnerability of a group of diverse characters on a roundabout of love they gave the world it’s first adult operetta. It has charmed and provoked audiences wherever it has played ever since.

Hit songs include: Send In The Clowns, Night Waltz, The Miller's Son.
