Sondheim Tribute Review will be the featured senior show production this fall for Season 79.
The Stephen Sondheim Society notes that Sondheim was "widely acknowledged as the most innovative, most influential and most important composer and lyricist in modern Broadway history. For more than 50 years, he has set an unsurpassed standard of brilliance and artistic integrity in musical theatre. His accolades include an Academy Award, eight Tony Awards (more than any other composer) including the Special Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in the Theatre, multiple Grammy Awards, multiple Drama Desk awards and a Pulitzer Prize."
Gordon Cantiello directs with Kaleb Wilkening as music director. This production will perform in the Studio Theatre September 27-29. Sponsored by The Legacy and Nebraska Lottery and supported by a grant from the Lincoln Arts Council.
