'Company' is a HIT. Great reviews, Sondheim came, and we've extended!

Wow. What a ride it has been, music-directing and conducting this production of Sondheim and Furth's Company at The Barrington Stage. Tremendous cast, great audience energy (complete with the wonderful and endearing Tveiter-Tots —Aaron Tveit's Super Fans— who came to see the production over a dozen times), positive reviews, and as of last night, the approval of Stephen Sondheim, himself. It will be hard to let this one go, but as we were recently extended a week to September 10th, I won't have to! And that's what it's all about, isn't it? That's what it's really about, really about!
