Merrily We Roll Along

Trinity Hall Lecture Theatre

Stephen Sondheim’s semi-autobiographical musical turns back the clock on friendship and the high price of success. Starting in the present moving backwards, Merrily We Roll Along traces the lives of wealthy, jaded composer, Franklin Shepard, and his two estranged friends through each milestone of their personal and professional lives. Merrily We Roll Along is a spirited and moving cautionary tale for anyone who has ever pursued a dream.
