Grab your best toga and load up the chariot as we go to one of Broadway’s greatest comedies. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum is a non-stop laugh fest of comedy theater combined with the energy of classic vaudeville. The storyline centers on Pseudolus, a crafty slave who tries to help win the hand of a beautiful, but slow-witted, courtesan named Philia for his young master, in exchange for his freedom. This musical romp includes mistaken identities, scheming neighbors, and secrets behind every fig leaf. Set to the delightful music and lyrics of Stephen Sondheim, this is one madcap Roman toga party you don't want to miss.
