#1Have you seen a live professional production of every Sondheim musical?
Posted: 7/16/17 at 10:09pm

Since my early teens, it's been a goal to see a live production/staging of every major Sondheim (music and lyrics) musical. With the recent Assassins concert at Encores!, I realized that I've finally accomplished this goal. I thought it would be fun if we could all post our lists of professional Sondheim productions that we've seen over the years, obviously, some members will have endlessly long lists, including the legendary original productions, which is always fun to read. 

The criteria is Broadway, Off-Broadway, national tour, regional, and staged concerts such as Encores!, the Philharmonic, and Ravinia. I'm not counting professional videos, bootlegs, school, or community theater productions, as I've seen one community theater production of Company that copied the Doyle production and I've tried erasing it from my memory. 

Excluded are Saturday Night and The Frogs, as these are very rarely produced, but feel free to include them in the optional section if you've seen them.

Just a heads up/reminder, for those in the northeast who are still waiting to see a live production of Merrily, Maria Friedman's lovely production will be at the Huntington Theatre in Boston this Fall. I am tempted to make the trip.

Not sure I agree with all of the OP's criteria. Not including Saturday Night and or The Frogs just because they are tough to cross of your list?? I call cheating! I also don't think it's fair to exclude amateur and community productions. A live production is a live production, and some amateur productions are actually quite good in my experience. So using my preferred rules, here we go:


Company 
-San Francisco Playhouse

Follies 
- 2011 Broadway Revival

A Little Night Music
- A.C.T 

Pacific Overtures 
2017 Classic Stage Company (Off-Broadway)

Sweeney Todd 
- 2017 Tooting Arts Club Revival (Off-Broadway)

-Ray of Light Theatre (Regional) 

Merrily We Roll Along
-  Youth Musical Theatre Company (Amateur) 

Sunday in the Park With George
- 2017 Broadway Revival 

Into The Woods
- 2012 Shakespeare in the Park 
- 2015 Roundabout Revival (Off-Broadway)

-Ray of Light Theatre (Regional)

Assassins  
-Ray of Light Theatre (Regional)

Road Show
- Rhinoceros Theatre (Regional)

The Frogs

-Jermyn Street Theatre (London)

Still missing: 

-Forum

-Saturday Night

-Passion

-Anyone Can Whistle

I should've been clearer, the criteria is more so for MY personal list, you can include whatever you'd like. For me, personally, my goal was always professional productions of each show. 

Also, It seems easier to have seen a production of Anyone Can Whistle (Carnegie Hall, LA, London, Ravinia, Encores) or Merrily than The Frogs or Saturday Night.  You can include whatever you want under the optional section, but if The Frogs or Saturday Night were mandatory, I doubt there would be many people with complete lists. Also, I wrote "major" Sondheim musicals, I certainly wouldn't consider Saturday Night or The Frogs two of his major works.

Fair enough - to each his own goal. But I still strongly disagree with you on that last point. They may not be his most famous works, but The Frogs was produced on Broadway, and Saturday Night had major productions at Second Stage and in London. They both have cast recordings, and are both available for licensing. Furthermore, they are both listed on Sondheim's Wikipedia under "major works." Of course Wikipedia is not the be-all-end-all, but it's telling. I think it's pretty silly to exclude The Frogs and Saturday Night while still including Road Show and Anyone Can Whistle. To me, those four are at roughly the same level of obscurity. Of course you're allowed to set your own parameters for your goal, but you claimed to have seen professional productions of all the major Sondheim musicals, and to me that just seems untrue.

"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe." -John Guare, Landscape of the Body
