3.9 Sunday in the Park with George!

The Gospel of Musical Theatre

It's time for Peter’s favorite Sondheim musical: Sunday in the Park with George!

Stephen Sondheim & James Lapine’s Pulitzer Prize-winning 1985 musical masterpiece is a beautiful meditation on art and art-making. We love this show, and we hope you will too.
