Since I worship at the throne of Sondheim, I did not want to miss this production. I wasn't disappointed. I went with my daughter, who was unfamiliar with Sondheim's work, and she, too has become a fan. We had a truly wonderful time. I cannot recommend this performance highly enough!

For Sondheim lovers, this was a delightful collection of his early work performed by two very talented ladies and one gentleman with a great voice. Nicely staged. Helpful commentary about the songs and the composer. Enjoyed it thoroughly.

This is a show for Sondheim fans. His greatest strength is how smart his lyrics are and how wonderful his rhymes are. These singers were good, not great, but the best thing is that you can hear every word, which is crucial in appreciating these wonderfu somgs.

Stephen Sondheim has been the leading composer of musical theater for the past fifty years. His work is timeless. From the streets of ancient Rome, through 19th-century Japan and turn-of-the-century Sweden, to the high-rise apartments of 1970 Manhattan, his songs represent a definitive time and place, and yet move beyond their particular settings to speak to everyone.

Now, with this award-winning revue of his earlier work, Signature presents some of the most lush, unforgettable songs from this musical-theater master whose work has so influenced Signature's history. Signature takes audiences back to where it all began with the early works of Stephen Sondheim, including songs from Anyone Can Whistle, Company, Do I Hear A Waltz?, Evening Primrose, Follies, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Gypsy, A Little Night Music, The Mad Show, Pacific Overtures, The Seven Percent Solution, and West Side Story.
