The Colorado Symphony’s Imagination Series begins with a Tribute to Stephen Sondheim, celebrating one of the most important figures in 20th-century musical theater. From the mind of Mary-Mitchell Campbell, the Music Director behind numerous Broadway shows including Mean Girls, The Prom, My Love Letter to Broadway with Kristin Chenoweth, Tuck Everlasting, Sweeney Todd, and more, this program will feature some of Sondheim’s greatest works from broadway hits like A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum, Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Sunday in the Park with George, and Into the Woods.
