This March, the Southampton Cultural Center is pleased to present a concert version of Stephen Sondheim’s Merrily We Roll Along. Merrily We Roll Along is a musical with a book by George Furth and lyrics and music by Stephen Sondheim. It is based on the 1934 play of the same name by George S. Kaufman and Moss Hart. Furth and Sondheim retained the basic structure and overall theme of the play but updated it to encompass the years between 1957 and 1980. Its main protagonist is Franklin Shepard who, in 1980, is a one-time composer of Broadway musicals who has become a highly successful but cynical and jaded film producer who has lost his friends, longtime collaborator Charley Kringas and Mary Flynn, a writer. Like the play, the musical moves backwards in time showing how Frank has become the man he is today.
