Marry Me A Little
Music and Lyrics by
Stephen Sondheim
Conceived and Developed by
Craig Lucas
and
Norman Rene
One Act, Revue, Rated G
MARRY ME A LITTLE uses several unknown songs by the
undisputed master of the contemporary Broadway musical to tell a
charming and bittersweet tale of love, loneliness and survival as a
modern single.
Two single strangers, left alone in their studio
apartments on a Saturday night, pass their time with sweetly secret,
unshared fantasies, never knowing that they're just a floor away from
each other and the end of their lonely dreams.
Originally conceived by director Norman Rene
and playwright Craig Lucas (Prelude To A Kiss), this ingeniously-constructed “revusical” is told entirely through songs either written early in Sondheim’s career (including numbers SATURDAY NIGHT) or cut from his groundbreaking Broadway musicals (A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM, ANYONE CAN WHISTLE, COMPANY, FOLLIES and A LITTLE NIGHT MUSIC). A must for Sondheim
aficionados, this easily produced one-act musical is also perfect as a
benefit, curtain warmer or second-stage production, as it can be played
on virtually any existing set - or no set at all. It's a smart, funny,
sophisticated and moving evening, and a fascinating look at "the songs
that got away."
