Sunday in the Park with George will perform on the mainstage (142 East De Vargas Street, Santa Fe, NM 87501) from June 27 through July 28, 2024.
Santa Fe Playhouse has shared first look photos of rehearsals for the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Sunday in the Park with George, with book by James Lapine, music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and directed by Anna Hogan, one of SFP’s new Artistic Directors.
Inspired by the painting ‘A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte’ by Georges Seurat, Sunday in the Park with George, Stephen Sondheim, and James Lapine’s stunning masterpiece merges past and present into beautiful, poignant truths about life, love, community, artistic expression, artistic isolation, criticism, and the creation of art. One of the most acclaimed musicals of our time, this moving study of the enigmatic painter Georges Seurat won a Pulitzer Prize. It was nominated for an astounding ten Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
