MURRAY, Ky. 鈥� The 澳门开奖结果 Department of Global Languages and Theatre Arts and Department of Music are pleased to present the late, great Stephen Sondheim鈥檚 groundbreaking musical, Company, on Thursday, March 10, Friday, March, 11 and Saturday, March 12, all at 7:30 p.m. and the last production on Sunday, March 13 at 2:30 p.m. All performances will be held in the Robert E. Johnson Theatre on the University鈥檚 campus. General admission is $20 per person. Tickets can be purchased at . Murray State students are admitted free with their student ID.

Company, Sondheim鈥檚 sixth Broadway musical, was first performed in 1970. Often described as more of a revue than a traditional musical, the show鈥檚 minimal plot revolves around a single man (Robert), his married friends and several girlfriends. The title refers not only to Robert鈥檚 friends and loved ones, but also the ensemble of actors performing the show. Company received 14 Tony Awards. 

鈥淲hen audiences leave after watching our production of Company, I hope it not only highlights the awesome performers we have here at Murray State but also leaves viewers with more questions than answers,鈥� said Zacharie Lamb, a freshman music performance-voice major from Mayfield, Kentucky. 鈥淭he show explores all these paradoxes related to relationships and love, and it doesn't really leave you with the solutions. Hopefully, audience members will leave and reflect on their own lives and experiences to come to their own conclusions of what it means to be alive, just as the protagonist Robert does in the show.鈥�

鈥淭he show itself, and I believe the route we chose to take (in our production), is very haunting and personal, but that鈥檚 what makes it so captivating,鈥� said Mack Slack, a sophomore theatre major and music minor from Belleville, Illinois.  

Murray State鈥檚 production of Company is directed by Daryl W. Phillipy, associate professor of theater, with music direction by Dr. Maribeth Crawford, associate professor of music. The orchestra is conducted by Dr. Trae Blanco, assistant professor of music. Instructor of scenic and lighting design Debra P. Holmes designed the set and lights, associate professor of theatre Heidi Ortega designed the costumes and associate professor of theatre Justin P. Walsh provided the technical direction and sound design. Choreography is by Caitlin Easter, senior theatre major from Metropolis, Illinois. Fight choreography is provided by associate professor of theatre Matthew Crider.
