Summoning Sondheim
13-25 AUG 16:00
Summoning Sondheim is a cabaret comedy séance that uses the power of musical theatre to summon us theatre kids' Lord and Saviour, Stephen Sondheim. Grace O'Keefe (co-creator of five-star Fringe sell-out Bad Teacher) and Jordana Belaiche (West End credits: Little Cosette in Les Misérables and Jane in Mary Poppins; yes, really) host a séance to summon Stephen Sondheim to save musical theatre. This love letter is a testament to Sondheim's legacy as one of the world's greatest artists and as a mentor to theatre-makers, exploring how we summon Sondheim every time we're in a theatre.
