4 great shows in one! April 25, 2000 22 out of 24 found this review helpful
While I have all four of these books in Paperback and therefore have had no need to buy this book I have looked through this book and I think buying this one is a MUCH better idea than buying them seperately. This book includes pictures, Drawings by Al Hirschfield, Cut-Lyrics and more. All four of the shows are purely genius and provide you with laughter while provoking thoughts. This is a must for all Sondheim fans and musical fans and anyone interested in 4 great shows: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Sunday in the Park With George,Sweeny Todd, and A Little Night Music.
Sondheim: Perfect in Every Way April 5, 2008 boardwalkman 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The scrips are just like what you would get if you cot just one. more than 600 pages of pure script. I love it!
Complete December 20, 2008 W. Smith A great book to have. Along with the already excellent scripts fro the four shows, a nice touch is the introduction to each show by someone intimiately involved with it. As an orchestrator, I particularly enjoyed reading Jonathan Tunick's introduction to 'A Little Night Music.'
Fabulous collection of scripts December 28, 2008 namefunnel (Lexington, MA USA) This is a fabulous collection of scripts for four of Sondheim's musicals. I especially like the forward for each script explaining how the writers developed each script. Several shows also include songs that were dropped during the development of the show or during rehearsals or tryouts. As a Broadway fan, I tend to think of these musicals as fixed and complete, and it is enlightening to see the writers treating the material as highly modifiable, and treating songs as expendable if they don't properly advance the story or have the desired effect on the audience.
A GREAT RESOURCE AND A GREAT READ August 31, 2009 John Gibson (San Diego, CA United States) If you're involved with musical theater these four titles are a must for your reference library. If you love these shows and want to revisit your favorite moments, this is a great way to do it. And at this price you sure can't beat what you get.
