SYNOPSIS:
His story. His inspiration, His genius. The tapestry of
creativity that characterizes Stephen Sondheim remained
largely undiscussed, especially by the man himself, until
the creation of Sondheim On Sondheim. Ranging from the
beloved to the obscure, the carefully selected two-dozen
songs hang from a framework of in-depth video
interviews delving into Sondheim's personal life and
artistic process. Hailed as a "revelatory revue full of
wonderful moments" and a "funny, affectionate and
revealing tribute to musical theater's greatest living
composer and lyricist," Sondheim On Sondheim is an
intimate portrait of the famed songwriter in his own
words... and music. Through the use of exclusive
interview footage, audiences get an inside look at famed
composer Stephen Sondheim's personal life and artistic
process.

SONDHEIM ON SONDHEIM is underwritten through the
generous donation of Bruce and Cecelia Baty.
