Company (2022)
Phone rings, door chimes, in comes COMPANY!
A comedic and heartfelt exploration of compromise and vulnerability, Company examines the ups and downs of marriage and relationships, and delivers a story that leaves you laughing, crying, and feeling “alive”.
On the night of his 35th birthday, confirmed bachelor, Robert, contemplates his unmarried state. Over the course of a series of dinners, drinks and even a wedding, his friends explain the pros and cons of taking on a spouse. The habitually single Robert is forced to question his adamant retention of bachelorhood during a hilarious array of interactions. Stephen Sondheim's Company is largely regarded as a trailblazer of the dark-comedy, modern-musical genre, and features a brilliantly brisk and energetic score containing many of the composer's best-known songs, such as “Getting Married Today”, “The Ladies who Lunch” and “Being Alive”.
