Don't see it if You are squeamish. You don’t like big beautiful musical productions.

See it if You are a disciple of Sondheim, want to see Annaleigh Ashford and Josh Grobin in their prime, and want a genuinely haunting evening.

Don't see it if You want a romantic and happy show

See it if Even if you're not a Sondheim fanatic - the ever elegant Norm Lewis glowers and rages in fine fettle - the cast is superb.

See it if The actors not only don’t disappoint .. they play the music. Fresh inventive take

Don't see it if You like happy shows

See it if you want to see a clever staging of the Sondheim classic with the singers doubling as the orchestra. Patty Lupone plays the tuba!

Don't see it if you want the tradition staging with more elaborate sets, or if you don’t like Sondheim (which makes you a bad person) (just kidding)
