When four well-to-do couples gather to celebrate their hosts’ anniversary, they quickly discover that the dinner isn’t prepared, the hostess is missing, and the host (who is the deputy mayor of New York) has been shot! What has happened? And how can they keep all this from getting out to the police and, more importantly, the press? Watch as the evening spins out of control in this laugh-out-loud Neil Simon farce.
Music & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim

Winner of 7 Tony Awards, Stephen Sondheim’s groundbreaking musical is a wildly funny look at relationships. Over a series of dinner parties, dates and conversations with his friends, the perennially single Bobby attempts to understand the pros and cons of marriage and the meaning of the word “commitment.” With a brilliant score by one of the greatest composers of our time, COMPANY features memorable and intricate songs, such as “Not Getting Married Today”, “The Ladies Who Lunch” and “Being Alive.”
