With the number of Entertainment Venues growing each year in Provincetown, it’s kind of odd that this gay mecca has (to our knowledge) never mounted any shows/tributes to one of the greatest queer music masters of all time: Stephen Sondheim. Finally, at last, his work is being performed in town thanks to the ever-creative Peregrine Theater Ensemble.
The Company, run by married couple Adam and Ben Berry, has been critically acclaimed in the past 10 years for their productions of Chicago, Rent, Hair, the Little Dog Laughed etc. Now after an enforced COVOD break, they are back and brimming with energy with their brand new SONDHEIM TRIBUTE REVIEW.
It comprises of Sondheim’s most memorable music and lyrics and is paired with an all-star female cast led by Darlene Van Alstyne and directed by Kyle Pleasant
Adam Berry, Executive Director of Peregrine Theatre Ensemble told Queerguru, “It is no doubt that Stephen Sondheim, to me, is the greatest American Theater composer that has ever lived. There are so many of his shows, songs, and lyrics that have changed the entire genre of musical theater after one single opening night on Broadway. He is revered by millions and the artistic mark he left on our world will never be matched or duplicated by anyone as long as we live.
Querguru completely shares Peregrine’s opinion, Stephen Sondheim is one of the greatest composers and lyricists of the last 100 years and love the fact they are showcasing the brilliance of his artistry and music in a ninety-minute, no intermission, give it-all-you’ve got extravaganza. This production is not to be missed!
