Structured in reverse chronological order, Merrily We Roll Along follows Franklin Shepard, a talented composer turned jaded sellout, and the close friends around him who rise and fall chasing their dreams. As the story moves backwards through the years, we unravel the neglect and betrayals that destroyed these meaningful relationships, gradually answering the show’s central question: “How did you get to be here?” Bold, funny, and at once heartbreaking and hopeful, this show explores the stories of ambitious people who can’t be honest with themselves-and warns how easy it is to go down dark roads in the chase for success. Featuring one of Sondheim’s most singable, emotionally rich scores, Merrily We Roll Along is a thrilling journey sure to leave audiences both entertained and moved.
