#Scarathalon Photo Challenge - Day 5 - Blood 🩸

Last night‘s Broadway show brought this one to mind. Saw this a few weeks ago - currently starring Josh Groban as the deadly barber - but the night of he was out with COVID. 🥲

I think I finished the first volume last March! I‘ve read it alongside other books when I had the time and I‘m so glad I finally finished it. A must read for anyone passingly familiar with Sondheim, and so much more potent now that the giant is gone from this plane.

Don't mind me, just weeping in spite of myself. Sondheim, you mad bastard; thank you. #SeeMoreTheatre

Ruthiella What‘s your favorite Sondheim? I‘ve not seen/heard them all, but I think Company is my No. 1. 1y
Andrea313 @Ruthiella Such a hard question! My favorite is probably Assassins, followed VERY closely by Sunday. But Into the Woods and Sweeney are also high on the list; it honestly feels impossible to choose! 1y
Ruthiella It‘s a totally unfair question! 😂 Assassins is maybe my second favorite and I‘ve never heard or seen Sunday in the Park with George…but I think I‘d start with Mandy Patinkin and Bernadette Peters. 1y

A book I will cherish as I go down the intimidating aspect of trying to write a musical. Lapine, as he did with “Sunday…” gets all the little points of light and color together to make this fine documentation of mounting a not Broadway friendly musical with the god Sondheim. Page after page of insight.

My love of Sondheim began during the lockdown of 2020. I listened to most of his albums. Around October 2021 I added this to my Christmas list. On November 26, 2021, the world lost a giant. The fact that this is only the first part is uh, really keeping me going in 2022. I can‘t wait to finish the next part.

Still absolutely gutted about the loss of Stephen Sondheim. I know my next couple of weeks will be full of Sunday in the Park with George on repeat and weeping when necessary. #Sondheim #SeeMoreTheatre

AmyG I am also so saddened. I grew up just loving West Side Story. 😥 2y
Andrea313 @AmyG Same here! It was one of the first musicals that drew me to theatre in a huge way, and Sondheim's brilliant, beautiful lyrics were a big part of the fascination. Sending love to the many, many who loved him. ❤️ 2y

RIP, Stephen Sondheim. 😥 He was an amazing talent.

AmyG So sad. He was extraordinary. 2y
mom2bugnbee We are gutted at my house. I bought the books of his lyrics for my daughter for Christmas before his passing - that gift will be even more special now. 2y
Lcsmcat @mom2bugnbee Same. I have both his books after going to hear him speak on his writing process. He was very funny and engaging in person as well as in his music. 2y
