About Ruth N. Halls

“Almost as timeless as comedy itself…the kind of organized chaos that leads to sheer, extremely contagious high spirits.” --New York Times

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum
Music & Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart

Directed by Guest Director
Choreographed by George Pinney

From Zero Mostel in the 1960s to Nathan Lane in the 1990s, Forum has remained one of the most beloved and enduring pieces of American musical theatre. Bursting with outlandish and archetypal characters like the braggart warrior, the libidinous old man, his domineering wife, the cunning slave, and the beautiful (yet dim-witted) lovers, Forum stews ancient comic devices into a captivating contemporary musical. This collaboration of composer Stephen Sondheim (Sweeney Todd, Into The Woods) with writers Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart (TV’s M*A*S*H) brings audiences “Something for everyone, a comedy tonight!”
