"While other shows of Sondheim's might be considered more grand or more groundbreaking, to me A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC is the closest he has gotten to a perfect show," said Executive Artistic Director Daniel Thomas. "It is musically dense and clever, yet features some of his greatest melodic writing and most lush accompaniments; its brilliant source material ensures that the characters and their stories remain engaging and entertaining throughout the evening; and it intertwines satire, cerebral humor, and moments of broad physicality with a quintessential romantic comedy. It is hilarious, thoughtful, and bittersweet; and most of all, it's a celebration of many aspects of love: parents and children, husbands and wives, lovers parted and reunited. This will be my fifth time working on the show in the last twenty years, and it remains one of my very favorite pieces of musical theatre."

A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC is a romantic farce par excellence. Based on the Ingmar Bergman film "Smiles of a Summer Night," couples meet, part, reunite during a glorious "Weekend in the Country" - all under the watchful eyes of the wry family matriarch and a harmonizing Greek chorus. The beautiful Sondheim score contains his biggest hit in "Send in the Clowns."

42nd Street Moon's production of A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC is part of the Sondheim Sweep.

In what may be the most ambitious venture in the Company's history, 42nd Street Moon has committed to be the first theatre company ever to produce every single professional stage show by legendary composer, Stephen Sondheim. The Sondheim Sweep will present his works, both lauded and obscure, either in production or in concert, for every season henceforward, from his first musical out of college to his most recent, to whatever he comes up with next...

42nd Street Moon looks forward to honoring the reigning master of the musical form for many years to come!
