The Players Centre is thrilled to usher in its 93rd Season of presenting high-quality theatre with two celebrations of Stephen Sondheim, the late musical theatre genius that gave us Into the Woods, Company and Sweeney Todd.

Featuring music from Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, and Anyone Can Whistle, not to mention the classics written with musical theatre giants, Leonard Bernstein, Jule Styne and Richard Rodgers, this dazzling array of some of Sondheim’s bestknown songs demonstrates his masterful craft and astounding creativity. Sept. 24 and 25, The Players welcomes Ann Morrison for her new show, recently performed at 54 Below in New York City. In her signature playful style, Ann interweaves the score of Sondheim’s Merrily We Roll Along with memories of her award-winning Broadway debut from the heart of a young actress working with theatre legends Hal Prince and Stephen Sondheim.

CREATIVE CORNER
The sun’s warmth The moon’s glow A winter storm With ice and snow (All in the same day )
A blizzard howls On northern coasts While sunshine bathers Lay and roast (All in the same day) Waves are twenty feet or more Then There is a glass like shore (All in the same day)
Somewhere it is yesterday Somewhere it’s tomorrow Today we’re living here and now On any time we borrow
