MUSE Presents: A Little Night Music

Following a successful 2014 season, The University of Sydney Musical Theatre Ensemble (MUSE) is proud to present their 2015 Major Production, Stephen Sondheim’s enchanting ‘A Little Night Music’, at the Seymour Centre from March 25-28, 2015. Winning Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Book and Best Original Score, the musical has been revived eight times both on Broadway and the West End, with a film adaption starring Elizabeth Taylor. ‘A Little Night Music’ is best remembered for the bitterly poignant “Send in the Clowns”, a song that reflects the ironies and disappointments of life. Based on the Ingmar Bergman film “Smiles of a Summer Night”, the musical is an exploration of amorous entanglements and human folly, framed by Hugh Wheeler’s vibrant book and Stephen Sondheim’s sophisticated score. ‘A Little Night Music’ follows a muddle of beautiful people living in a realm removed from the humdrum banality of the daily grind, underpinned by the lustiness and unrestrained passion of their servants.
