A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Book by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart
Based on the plays “Miles Gloriosus”, “Pseudolus”, and “Mostellaria”
by Plautus (251-183 B.C.)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum is a non-stop laugh-fest in which Pseudolus, a crafty slave, struggles to win the hand of a beautiful but slow-witted courtesan named Philia, for his young master, Hero, in exchange for freedom. The plot twists and turns with cases of mistaken identity, slamming doors, and a showgirl or two.This unforgettable, hysterical musical allows a terrific ensemble of comedic actors to shine–“something for everyone, a comedy tonight!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performance dates: September 25, 26, October 2, 3, 9, 10<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
