Merrily We Roll Along @ SecondStory Rep (Redmond)

Merrily We Roll Along begins in the present and moves backwards, tracing the lives of wealthy, jaded composer, Franklin Shepard, and his two estranged friends through each milestone of their personal and professional lives (good and bad). The show ends with a touch of rueful irony, as the three best friends at the start of their careers face a bright future: young, talented and enthusiastic about the worlds waiting to be conquered. Book by George Furth, music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Directed by Doug Fahl, music direction by John Allman.

Tickets ($30) here.
