"Comedy Tonight!" Join us for one of the most hysterical musical comedies ever written! From the genius mind of composer Stephen Sondheim, writer of Into The Woods and Sweeney Todd, comes this tuneful, sexy, and funny farce set in ancient Rome. It's appealing and appalling with stunning surprises and cunning disguises! Hit shows like Glee, South Park, and even Mad Men have referenced this show as one of the greatest irreverent musicals to hit the stage. Before there was Book of Mormon, there was A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE FORUM! Togas encouraged!
