"Send in the Clowns" and elegant waltzes drive this bittersweet story-the winner of six Tony awards including best musical, book, and score.
Old flames are rekindled and new affairs ignite in this farce about famous actress Desiree Armfeldt and her weekend guests: an ex-lover, Fredrik, his much-younger bride, and his son-a divinity student. When Desiree's current paramour arrives unannounced, the stage is set for grownup comedy.
"Futral floats the songs on a voice that sounds tender and radiant and intimate." - Washington Post
"Shelton employed a rich, resonant tenor that was consistent in all registers. He displayed particularly fine ringing tones at the top of his range." - Kansas City Star
