I’m about to commit a musical theater geek sin, Dear Readers, so get the torches and pitchforks ready. I don’t care for Stephen Sondheim’s show, “Company”. I appreciate it for what it is, but I think it rambles, and ultimately says not very much at all. Then along comes the revival of the show with a gender swap element, currently playing at the Paramount. And this new take did not help my appreciation, in fact it exasperates all the things I find problematic with the show and adds in a slew of new issues.

Once Upon A Mattress will begin previews on Broadway tonight, Wednesday, July 31, 2024. The revival will celebrate its opening night on Monday, August 12, 2024, for the limited engagement through November 30, 2024, at The Hudson Theatre. Meet the cast of Once Upon a Mattress here!
