Here’s to Stephen Sondheim! We’re having a party to celebrate the legendary musical genius. It’s an elegant evening, filled with his most memorable songs—from tender to passionate, from bittersweet to melancholy—and you’re invited. In a posh Manhattan condo, a glamorous couple looks back on what went wrong, to taunt, tease and maybe gloat a little. Their young guests are more starry-eyed but still wary, even as they begin to fall in love. Nearby, an astute observer adds his insightful songs to the mix. And what songs! They’re all Sondheim, which means all sophisticated and smart and drop-dead droll. As soon as the play is over, we head for the Jam session at the Elks Lodge for dinner dancing into the small hours!
