Dream World Productions presents its first production, COMPANY by Stephen Sondheim – A winner of seven TONY Awards including Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical, Best Original Music and Best Original Lyrics in the 1971 Original Broadway production and Best Revival of a Musical in the 2006 Broadway Revival. This super-funny musical comedy explores the pros and cons, the ups and downs as well as the ins and outs of being single. Join our talented cast as they try to persuade our hero, Robert, to do what our Government has been hard selling for years… Get married! Lots of great laughs and great songs about LOVE. It’s just wonderful how singing about getting hitched or being ditched can leave just about everyone in stitches. This November, make a date with Robert and friends and keep them COMPANY.
Reviews
“a smart, funny and sexy production, brimming with so much heart and talent … I emerged from the show feeling like Bobby – older, wiser and alive”
– Sexy take on single issues, The Straits Times Life!
“From director Hossan Leong’s sensitive hand in shaping the piece’s rambling structure cohesively (he also localized the setting) to George Chan’s crisp choreography to, of course, Sondheim’s complex word smithery and harmonies, Company ties the knot”
– Coming together nicely, TODAY
“Watching Company will strike a raw nerve in you … funny, touching and so damn depressing at the same time … this is a brave project that we should all definitely back”
– Company Struck A Raw Nerve, Cosmopolitan
“Dream’s greatest triumph with this production is in contextualising a Sondheim musical for a local audience, and opening our eyes and ears to the beauty and depth to what has usually been considered an esoteric and inaccessible piece of musical theatre”
– Company, Buttons in the Bread
“We do not say this often; if you could only watch one production this year, let it be ‘Company’”
– [Review], Poached Mag
“rest assured that the Sondheim’s work of art is not put to shame”
– To Be of Not To Be (Married), Urban Wire
