A romantic farce par excellence. Based on the Ingmar Bergman film "Smiles of a Summer Night," couples meet, part, reunite during a glorious "Weekend in the Country" - all under the watchful eyes of the wry family matriarch and a harmonizing Greek chorus. The beautiful Sondheim score contains his biggest hit in "Send in the Clowns."
Book by Hugh Wheeler
Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Suggested by a film by Ingmar Bergman
Directed by Tom Ross
