Stephen Sondheim's debut as a Broadway composer, SATURDAY NIGHT was written in 1954 and substantially revised for an acclaimed 2000 off-Broadway production. SATURDAY NIGHT has been called Sondheim's "most charming score... just as fresh and exciting today and when it was written." Taking place on three consecutive Saturday nights, it's a delicious "boy-meets-girl" love story with songs (like "So Many People" and "Once Wonderful Day") that are "sophisticated, unexpected and - yes - melodic."
