SUMMARY:Sondheim Workshop Session 2
DESCRIPTION:G.O.A.T.?\nThe works and legacy of Stephen Sondheim\n\nPlease note\, this is a two-part workshop on January 14 & 28. If you missed the first session but would like to join us for the second\, please call the ACT Office at 814-943-4357\nStephen Sondheim was one of Broadway history’s songwriting titans\, whose music and lyrics raised and reset the artistic standard for the American stage musical. An intellectually rigorous artist who perpetually sought new creative paths\, Sondheim was the theater’s most revered and influential composer-lyricist of the last half of the 20th century\, if not its most popular. \nIn two Saturday morning sessions\, we’ll dig into Sondheim’s work and how he and his many collaborators reimagined and reshaped the art of musical theatre\, impacting and influencing the works of future theatrical writers\, directors\, and composers. \n  \nAbout the Facilitator\n\nJonathan O’Harrow would never call himself a Stephen Sondheim expert\, but the title “overly-obsessed superfan” certainly seems to fit. Jonathan eagerly gobbles up every book on the theatre legend that he can find and has spent ridiculous amounts of time (and money) acquiring as many video and audio recordings of the composer’s works as possible. \nJonathan has had the opportunity to work on many Sondheim shows\, having performed in productions of “Gypsy\,” “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum\,” “Company\,” “Merrily We Roll Along\,” and “Assassins\,” as well as directing Altoona Community Theatre’s productions of “A Little Night Music” and “Sweeney Todd.”
