Road Show - Sondheim @ 90 Roundtable

Season 1 | Episode 10
1h 0m | Dec 7, 2020

Porchlight's popular series Sondheim @ 90 Roundtable with Michael Weber is back with an incredible line up and great conversation.


Weber is joined by Deanna Dunagan (Tony Award-winning actor for "August: Osage County," who appeared in the world premiere of "Bounce" at the Goodman, directed by Hal Prince), Chris Jones (Chicago Tribune chief theater critic and culture columnist, New York Daily News Broadway and WBBM-TV critic) and Michael Mahler (Jeff Award-winning actor, music director, composer/lyricist whose credits include creating additional lyrics for the Broadway revival of "Miss Saigon" as well as music direction for "Road Show" at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre) to talk about "Road Show," previously titled "Bounce" and before that "Gold!" and "Wise Guys." With music and lyrics by Sondheim and book by John Weidman, this show has a fascinating history, a complex evolution and has never appeared on the Great White Way but had productions in Chicago, Washington D.C. and off-Broadway.


"Road Show" tells the story of brothers Addison and Wilson Mizner and their adventures across America at the start of the 20th century for the Klondike Gold Rush to the Florida real estate boom in the 1920s. Join Weber and the panel which is sure to be another fascinating Sondheim @ 90 Roundtable!
