Breakdown

SNAPSHOTS, which will open Northlight's 2010-2011 season, is a new show described by the authors as a "musical scrapbook," that includes some of the best-loved music and lyrics by the creator of WICKED, GODSPELL, PIPPIN! and WORKING. SNAPSHOTS, with book by David Stern, music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz, direction by Ken Sawyer, musical staging by Karl Christian, and musical supervision and arrangements by Steve Orich, will run at Northlight Theatre, 9501 Skokie Blvd in Skokie, September 16–October 23, 2011.

Blending together some of the best-loved music with some of the lesser known gems of Broadway composer Stephen Schwartz, this touching romantic comedy exposes a marriage at a crossroads. Newly adapted, this musical reveals the humorous twists and unexpected turns of a middle-aged couple’s reminiscence of how love brought them together and why life pushed them apart. Many of the lyrics to even the most familiar songs have been rewritten, to stay true to the story and characters of this new work.
