Description
Multi-award winning Foothill Music Theatre presents "Sunday in the Park with George," the Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by James Lapine. Inspired by the iconic pointillist painting “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte” by Georges Seurat, this funny, heartfelt musical delves into the inner-lives of both the artist and his subjects. With a colorful cast ranging from introspective artists to indifferent American tourists,"Sunday in the Park with George" tells of the inspiration and agony faced both by George (a fictionalized Georges Seurat) and, in the second act, his great-grandson, also an artist named George. This masterful painting-come-to-life won the 1985 Pulitzer Prize for Drama as well as multiple Tony Awards for its original run and subsequent Broadway revivals.
