Santa Fe Playhouse (SFP) proudly presents the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Sunday in the Park with George, with book by James Lapine, music and Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and directed by Anna Hogan, one of SFP’s new Artistic Directors.
.
“‘White. A blank page or canvas. The challenge: bring order to the whole.’ Sondheim sets the stage, clearing the way for our stellar team to transport you from studio to park, from the 1880s to the 1980s, and most importantly, to the most intimate and vulnerable reaches of George’s mind.” – shares director Hogan – “Sunday in the Park with George presents us with the beauty and brutality of an artist's pursuit of wholeness and harmony. We are challenged to consider the price of pursuing artistic expression.”
.

Inspired by the painting ‘A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte’ by Georges Seurat, Sunday in the Park with George, Stephen Sondheim, and James Lapine’s stunning masterpiece merges past and present into beautiful, poignant truths about life, love, community, artistic expression, artistic isolation, criticism, and the creation of art. One of the most acclaimed musicals of our time, this moving study of the enigmatic painter Georges Seurat won a Pulitzer Prize. It was nominated for an astounding ten Tony Awards, including Best Musical.
