Performances... April 5 - April 29, 2012, Weekends Thursdays thru Sundays
The ancient comedies of Plautus inspired Burt Shevelove and his collaborator, Larry Gelbart, to write a tale full of dreamy-eyed young lovers, sex-starved older adults and crafty slaves, with such plot complications as a houseful of courtesans, magic potions, mistaken identities, unexpected returns and so on. Add music by Stephen Sondheim, and you have a “Lovely” show that won six Tony Awards. Memorable music (“Comedy Tonight” and “Everybody Ought to Have a Maid”) round out this non-stop farce.
