SUNY Cortland’s Department of Performing Arts presents Stephen Sondheim’s musical comedy “Company”!

“SUNY Cortland’s ‘Company’ is an exploration of relationships and marriage through a contemporary lens,” said Performing Arts Professor Kevin Halpin, director and choreographer of the production. “Full of humor, insight, song, and dance, this talented cast takes you on a roller-coaster of emotions through the world of love and relationships. This is a show you will love from top to bottom.”
“Company” was the first Broadway musical to not have a linear plot. Instead, a series of songs and vignettes focus on relationships, specifically marriage, as seen through the eyes of a single 35-year-old. The original Broadway production was nominated for a record-breaking 14 Tony Awards and won four, including Best Musical. The production focused on “Bobby,” a man navigating the world of relationships in 1970s New York City.
The Cortland production is set in a contemporary time frame and, like the current Broadway revival, has a female “Bobbie” lead. It broadens the idea of marriage and relationships with a more inclusive 2022 lens. However, the score still includes classic Sondheim songs, including The Little Things You Do Together, The Ladies Who Lunch, Getting Married Today and Being Alive.
