A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum
A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum
Book by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart
Music by Stephen Sondheim
Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim
Based on the plays of Plautus
Two Acts, Book Musical, Rated PG
Original Broadway version
"Tragedy tomorrow, comedy tonight!" Broadway's greatest farce is light, fast-paced, witty, irreverent and one of the funniest musicals ever written-the perfect escape from life's troubles. "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum" takes comedy back to its roots, combining situations from time-tested, 2000 year old comedies of Roman playwright Plautus with the infectious energy of classic vaudeville. The result is a non-stop laugh-fest in which a crafty slave (Pseudolus) struggles to win the hand of a beautiful but slow-witted courtesan (Philia) for his young master (Hero), in exchange for freedom.
