Merrily We Roll Along opens on February 2
by Martin Friedman 25 Jan '18

25 Jan '18

*Lakeland Civic Theatre presents* *Merrily We Roll Along* Music and Lyrics by *Stephen Sondheim* Book by *George Furth* Directed by *Martin Friedman* Musical Direction by *Jordan Cooper* Setting Designed by *Austin Kilpatrick* Costumes Designed by *Kelsey Tomlinson* Lighting Designed by* Adam Ditzel* Sound Designed by *Eric Simna* Choreography by *Jennifer Justice* Production Stage Manager * Elizabeth Cammett* *The Play:* *Merrily We Roll Along, *written in 1981, is based on a 1934 play by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart. The musical (with a book by George Furth) was first produced in November of 1981, where it ran for 17 performances. Not very successful eh? It tells of the disintegration of the friendship of successful songwriter Franklin Shepard, his lyricist and best friend Charlie Kringas, and novelist Mary Flynn. The action moves backward through time, from 1976 to 1957. This is one of Stephen Sondheim’s most accessible and difficult scores. It is most certainly about friendship and its importance in the lives of three people. This show has great personal meaning to me. And while the book is problematic; I am confident that our production team and the actors that are cast can overcome this. This is one great play. *Production Dates:* *Merrily We Roll Along **will open on Friday, February 2, 2018 and run through February 18, 2018. There will be nine (9) shows; that is three (3) weeks of performances. * *Featuring:* *Amiee Collier* *Eric Fancher* *Trey Gilpin* *Kelly Smith* *Daniel Simpson* *Neely Gevaart* *Carlos Cruz* *Kyle Burnett* *Anne Barrett* *Sarah Clare* *Kate Michalski* *Frank Ivancic* *Ticket Information: * Tickets: $15 adults; $13 seniors and $7 for all students.
