Squabbalogic: Sondheim on Sondheim at The Seymour Centre

Squabbalogic: Sondheim on Sondheim at The Seymour Centre

Following sell-out seasons of Carrie The Musical and The Drowsy Chaperone, Squabbalogic Independent Music Theatre are proud to present the Australian premiere of Sondheim on Sondheim. An intimate look at the ‘Father of the Modern Musical’, the production will show at The Reginald Theatre, Seymour Centre from 1st to 18th October 2014.

The first production of Squabbalogic’s 2014-2015 season,of Sondheim on Sondheimis drawn right from the heart of Stephen Sondheim - the creator of musical theatre works including Sunday in the Park with George, Sweeney Todd and Into The Woods.

Originally presented on Broadway in 2010, Sondheim on Sondheimsees in depth video interviews with Sondheim interwoven with Grammy-nominated re-imaginings of his most acclaimed works and brand new material written by Sondheim for this unique theatrical event.

Craig Stewart (A New Brain, Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson) will direct a cast that includes Blake Erickson (Hold Me Closer, Logies Dancer), Rob Johnson (Carrie The Musical), Louise Kelly (Billy Elliot), Debora Krizak (Sweet Charity), Phillip Lowe (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), Monique Sallé (A Chorus Line), and Christy Sullivan (Next to Normal).

Producer Jay James-Moody says of the production, “This is a fascinating and insightful show, the perfect showcase of the best of Sondheim’s writing with a stunning cast alongside deeply moving, often times funny, and intensely personal recorded interviews with Sondheim himself. Our goal with this piece is to worship his words, because as he writes of himself in his self-deprecating song, he is God. At least to anyone in musical theatre.”
