Inland Valley Repertory Theatre will present "Merrily We Roll Along," the beloved musical by legendary composer Stephen Sondheim and playwright George Furth.
"Merrily We Roll Along" has been a huge hit recently on Broadway, winning Tony Awards for Best Musical Revival as well as Best Actors for Jonathan Groff and Daniel Radcliffe," says Artistic Director Frank Minano. "I am thrilled to direct this Sondheim masterpiece. The cast features seasoned performers who have delighted local audiences at Candlelight Pavilion and Southern California for years."
