Celebrating Sondheim - Simone Craddock & Friends
Hey, old friend! Four of Perth’s premier Vocalists would like to propose a toast to the most influential Composer & Lyricist of our generation.
From the compositions of Into the Woods, Follies and Sunday in the Park with George, to Sweeney Todd and Merrily We Roll Along... Over six decades, Sondheim redefined Musical Theatre and wove his way into our hearts with “Send in the Clowns”, “Being Alive”, “Sooner or Later”, “Children will Listen” and more.
Tonight, a star-studded line-up from the worlds of Jazz, Opera and Musical Theatre, come together to bring Sondheim’s legacy to life.
