Blank Canvas Theatre presents a benefit concert of Merrily We Roll Along, with Music and lyrics By Stephen Sondheim and Book by George Furth.

The benefit performances are set for May 24 - May 25. 7:00pm - Hors d'oeuvres, music and raffle items; 8:00pm - Concert begins. Tickets: $25. To purchase tickets for this show click HERE. To view the cast, their bios and the design staff click HERE. Blank Canvas Theatre is located at 78th Street Studios, 1305 West 78th Street, Suite 211. Cleveland, OH 44102.

MERRILY WE ROLL ALONG begins in the present and moves backwards, tracing the lives of wealthy, jaded composer Franklin Shepard and his two estranged friends through each milestone of their personal and professional lives (good and bad). The show ends with a touch of rueful irony, as the three best friends at the start of their careers face a bright future: young, talented and enthusiastic about the worlds waiting to be conquered.

This is a concert version of the show. These two evenings are dedicated to raising money for Blank Canvas Theatre. There will be Hors d'oeuvres and music an hour before the show and the concert begins at 8pm. Bid on amazing raffle items, a 50/50 raffle and see an amazing cast performing some of Sondheim's best.

Blank Canvas Theatre provides professional quality productions, placing emphasis on entertainment at affordable prices.
