SONDHEIM ON SONDHEIM is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).

Go deep into the catalog of one of the defining voices of American musical theatre and celebrate Stephen Sondheim at his best. With a set list combining both familiar favorites—including West Side Story, Follies and Sweeney Todd—and hidden gems, immerse yourself in Sondheim’s unparalleled work, including filmed commentary from the man himself!

Hailed as a “revelatory revue full of wonderful moments” and a “funny, affectionate and revealing tribute to musical theater’s greatest living composer and lyricist,” SONDHEIM ON SONDHEIM is an intimate portrait of the famed songwriter in his own words… and music. Through the use of exclusive interview footage, audiences get an inside look at the personal life and artistic process of famed composer, Stephen Sondheim.

His story. His inspiration. His genius. The tapestry of creativity that characterizes Stephen Sondheim remained largely undiscussed, especially by the man himself, until the creation of SONDHEIM ON SONDHEIM. Ranging from the beloved to the obscure, the carefully selected two-dozen songs hang from a framework of in-depth video interviews, delving into Sondheim’s personal life and artistic process.

Far from the typical song cycle, the incomparable James Lapine brilliantly curated a collection of songs that have been masterfully arranged by David Loud.
